Message type: E = Error
Message class: 6D - Real Estate Messages
Message number: 271
Message text: FL & is not created
You have marked the 'Do not generate FL automatically' checkbox.
According to system settings, a functional location is to be created in
Plant Maintenance and assigned to the business entity. You can override
this setting by marking this checkbox. This means that the functional
location will not be created in the database, and no functional
location will be assigned to the business entity.
The automatic generation of functional locations for all lower-level
objects (properties, buildings and rental units of the business entity)
is also prevented.
If you have accidentally marked this checkbox, delete it. A functional
location will then be generated and assigned to the business entity.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
