| # locations A location defines the physical site of an asset within the Fixed Assets Management module. You use locations when you enter assets, process asset transactions, print reports, and perform inquiries. Each location shares a common format called the location format. The location format contains segments that represent information about the physical site of an asset. The location format specifies the order in which these segments appear. The location format can contain up to eight segments. Note If you are editing a location format, make sure no one else uses LN because you are modifying key values. Each location segment contains valid values called segment codes. When you enter assets in LN, you select a segment code for each segment in the location format. For example, you can set up the location segment COUNTRY, and define segment codes by using two characters for each country in which your organization maintains assets. When you enter an asset that is located in the Netherlands, you select, for example, the segment code NE for the segment COUNTRY. |
