Is it possible to create multiple assets for one equipment?

[gitank_sharma]

Hi All,

We have the Equipment-Asset synchronization active - which means we can create asset based on equipment update.The fields synced with asset classes are - Equipment category, object type (screenshot attached)

If the above 2 fields are updated on an equipment along with company code- it creates an asset (there is one to one relationship between equipment and asset)

My Question - Is it possible to create multiple assets per same equipment (in standard changing the company code and object type doesn't trigger new asset creation, in fact the relationship with original equipment is reset) ? We don't intend to use sub assetscapture.png

Hi Gitank,

You should not create new asset if you change object type or company code, instead you need to transfer the existing asset linked to the same equipment to new company if you are transferring the equipment to new company.

Hi Nirmal,

The client is into leasing of trucks. The same truck can be used for short term rental> comes back to warehouse and then issued for long term rental to a customer. STR/LTR are different asset classes since depreciation is different for each. We want to create an asset for both (STR/LTR) using the same equipment (truck). Once the STR ends we scrap the STR asset and create a new asset for it when issuing for LTR.

Kind regards

Gitank
