The New Asset/Equipment Setup screen lets you manage all of your Assets from one screen.
- "Assets" refers to machinery or apparatus that can be moved from one location or project to another. Examples include cranes, heavy equipment such as front loaders, or any type of rental units.
- "Equipment" refers to machines or devices that do not move. Once installed, they remain in the same location or project. An example of "Equipment" would be a boiler or cooling tower.
On this new Asset/Equipment setup page, you can add new assets and/or equipment and assign to a project. Once a piece of Equipment has been assigned to a Project, it cannot be moved or re-assigned to another Project. Assets, along with documents and attachments such as maintenance logs can be moved or reassigned to other projects. All Assets and Equipment on the Asset/Equipment Setup screen will also display under the "Project Equipment" area on the Project to which they are assigned. There's also an Assignment History page for Asset (not Equipment) so you can see a log of assignment changes made over time.
