Asset History

The Asset History functionality provides the user with a tool to record key events of an asset (or a group of assets) throughout it’s (or their) life cycle. These asset history items represent information that should be captured for posterity. Asset history records can be retrieved in report templates or accessed via the UI.

The Asset History dialog allows for the user to enter a date for the Asset History item. If however the Asset history item is related to a Workpack or a Schedule, then the Date of the Asset History item will be populated from the Date of the Workpack or Schedule. Additionally, you can reassign (or change) the asset which this Asset History item is related from this dialog.
