Question

Options

• AThe key of a storage location is unique within a company code.

• CA plant can only be assigned to one company code.
• DThe key of a plant is unique within a client.
• EA storage location can be assigned to several plants.

• A
  7% (3)
• B
  76% (34)
• E
  18% (8)

Explanation

In SAP's enterprise structure hierarchy, B is correct because a plant serves as a physical location that can contain multiple storage locations (e.g., warehouse areas, bins), allowing inventory to be organized within a single plant. C is correct because the plant-to-company code relationship is strictly one-directional: a plant belongs to exactly one company code for financial reporting purposes, though one company code can have many plants. D is correct because plant keys (4-character alphanumeric codes) must be globally unique across the entire SAP client - unlike storage location keys, which only need to be unique within their own plant.

A is wrong because storage location keys are unique within a plant, not within a company code - two different plants in the same company code can each have a storage location keyed "0001." E is wrong because a storage location is always tied to exactly one plant; it cannot be shared or reassigned across multiple plants.

Memory tip: Think of the hierarchy as a strict family tree - Client > Company Code > Plant > Storage Location. Each child has exactly one parent (plant → one company code; storage location → one plant), but a parent can have many children. Plant keys are unique at the client (grandparent) level because they must be globally identifiable, while storage location keys only need to be unique locally within their plant.
