Asset Type and Equipment Type ID

A system generated Equipment Type ID has been added to all Asset Types. This added feature strengthens the connection between the assets and the Issue List. Most of the what the feature does happens in the background, out of site of most users. However, for those who use languages other than english,  you will be able to associate an asset type to a problem code by the asset types equipment id rather than its asset type name. 


You can connect assets to the issue list by:

  • asset type name; or 
  • by equipment type id.
