  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WPS01010 - Hierarchical task lists are ignored for functional location &1
  
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when you try to assign or use a hierarchical task list for a functional location in a maintenance order or maintenance plan, but the system does not support hierarchical task lists for functional locations in that context.
  
  Hierarchical task lists are typically used for equipment, not for functional locations.
  Functional locations generally support single-level task lists only.
  When the system detects a hierarchical task list assigned to a functional location, it ignores the hierarchy and processes only the top-level tasks or ignores the task list altogether.
  
  
  Explanation:
  
  In SAP Plant Maintenance (PM), task lists can be created for both equipment and functional locations.
  Task lists can be single-level or hierarchical (multi-level).
  Hierarchical task lists are designed to represent complex maintenance tasks with sub-tasks.
  However, the system restricts hierarchical task lists to equipment objects.
