# Open a different functional location

Switch to a functional location that is not on the current breadcrumb trail by opening the list of functional locations within your entitlement scope.

## Before you begin

Your worker profile must grant access to more than one functional location. The list shows only the functional locations that are within your entitlement scope.

Role required: sn\_icw.user

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **Workspaces** > **Digital Factory Workspace** > **Equipment Model**.

    You can view the functional location that is set in your worker profile.

2.  Select the drop-down button to view the list of the functional locations that are within your entitlement scope.

3.  From the list, select the functional location that you want to open in the content area.

4.  Expand and select the functional location to view it in a new tab in the content area.

    The view refreshes and the selected functional location is used as the active context. The breadcrumb trail updates to show the equipment model hierarchy path for the selected functional location.
