Manage asset availability

The asset availability functionality provides an overview of the availability of all assets based on the status setup.

To open the page, go to: Business objects > Business objects > Asset availability.

Initially, the page shows no data.

Steps:

1. Select a site
2. Select one or more warehouses
3. Set a transaction time. This defaults to the current date and time
4. Click the New button or use the Find the product option to add rental types
5. Click Refresh data to load results

You can view the following sections:

• Rental types: Overview of availability by color-coded status
• Asset availability: Detailed availability per status and rental type
• Asset availability – extra quantity: Assets on return journals or transfer orders

From the action tab, you can open related pages:

• Business objects: Displays all objects with availability transactions
• Asset availability transactions: Shows all transactions. Click Rental transaction or Transaction origin for details
• Business object availability: Opens the availability page for the selected rental type

You can view all asset availability transactions.

You can also use a separate feature to view all transactions for all rental items.

This works like the Asset availability page but without filters.

You can manually change the asset availability status if needed.

You can only change to statuses marked as "Allow manual change = Yes" in the asset status setup.

When changing to a lower-priority status, the business object status does not update automatically. After the change, go to the Business object asset availability transaction page and update the end date/time of the active transaction to a value at least one second before the start of the new transaction.
