Abstract: A device for managing and configuring field devices in an automation installation with a configuration tool that is designed to physically detect a field device in the automation installation, to logically incorporate it into the automation installation and to configure it in the automation installation, wherein, to this end, the configuration tool resorts to a prescribed first field-device-specific information packet that describes the functions and data of the field device at least in part. In order to ascertain the origin of a system report, it is proposed that the hierarchic structure of the automation installation be mapped in the configuration tool by nested geometric figures in a screen element. On each hierarchy level, each object is represented by a geometric figure. The geometric figures of each object of a superordinate hierarchy level each form a frame around the geometric figures of the objects of the respectively subordinate hierarchy level.
