Asset Statuses

You use the Asset Statuses program to maintain status codes for assets.

Asset status codes are used for information purposes only and do not have to be defined against an asset (Assets).

You could use the asset status codes to indicate the whereabouts or the condition of an asset at a particular time. For example, if an asset is being refurbished, is in storage or is temporarily out of commission, then you could use an asset status code to indicate this against the asset (Assets).

The Browse on Asset Statuses listview displays the asset status codes currently held on file.
