Recording asset usage

Use this procedure to record usage reading for assets such as vehicles and equipment.

  1. Load the asset record you want into the appropriate asset InfoViewer.
  2. On the Life History tab, under Usage, click Details.
  3. Click Add above the Usage grid.
  4. Specify this information:
    Reading Date
    Specify the date of the usage reading.
    Value
    Specify the reading value, such as the number of miles or hours of use.
  5. If the asset is an equipment unit or vehicle that was used during a work order or an asset inspection, specify the appropriate identification number in the Work Order field or the Inspection field.
    Note: The Usage grid also shows usage readings that were recorded in asset inspections and work orders. For example, if you record a usage reading while adding an equipment resource to an inspection, the grid will show that reading and the number of the inspection.
