The Asset tab contains two grids designed to link Inventory items to the Work Order, and then link those items to Work Tasks.
Watch the Work Order Tutorial Movies.
Asset Grid
The Assets grid lists the Inventory assets associated with the work order. The grid gives users easy access to these records and makes it easy to create new work orders involving the selected assets. Other special functions in this grid vary, depending on the type of assets listed.
A sample of the Assets grid appears below. Sort records in each grid by clicking on the headings. An up or down arrow (highlighted in orange below) indicates whether data appear in ascending or descending order.
Note: Multiple asset types can be added to this grid.
Note: A single asset can be added to the grid multiple times.
Associated Tasks Grid
The Associated Tasks grid shows the Work Order Tasks (found on the Tasks/Res tab) that are associated with the Asset selected in the Asset grid above it. Associating Assets with Tasks can be helpful in determining the work costs related to an asset.
A sample of the Associated Tasks grid appears below.
