Retire Equipment

When you retire an equipment, you change the location of the selected asset in the asset tree. Changing the asset location in the asset tree creates records on the **Asset History* tab for the asset itself as well as the source parent, to record details of the relocation.

To retire an equipment, proceed as follows:

  1. Select the relevant asset node in the asset tree.

  2. Choose the Retire Equipment menu option either from the Assets toolbar menu or from the right-click context menu of the node.

  3. In the dialog that is displayed, select the destination parent asset from the asset tree.

  4. Click OK.

Result

The asset tree is refreshed and the asset will be selected in the tree under the new location.

Note

The Retire Equipment menu item is a Shortcut. As such, if necessary, it can be debugged using the Shortcut debugger. When you select the menu item, hold down the Control key on the keyboard. The Select Asset dialog will be displayed, but will be followed by the Debug Shortcut dialog. You can step through shortcut items one at a time, which may help to narrow down any problems.
