Transferring an Asset

A situation may occur when assets being held at one location need to be transferred to another location. To ensure the complete process is handled properly and updated in Service Automation, you can create an Asset Transfer work order when physically moving the asset to the destined location. This ensures that Service Automation has the exact location of the moved asset on record.

When selecting an asset for transfer, the work order's trade and category will reflect what is chosen for Asset Rules under Asset Transfer section.  

An Asset Transfer must have a checklist created to associate with the work order. The checklist needs to be selected under Asset Rules.
