Removing length from a linear asset

  1. Select Asset Management > Assets > [asset module].
  2. On the tab for the correct linear asset type, under Configuration, click Remove "Asset" Length Tool.
  3. Specify this information:
    "Asset"
    Specify the ID of the asset from which length is being removed.
    Starting From
    Specify the point, measured from the start of the asset, from which the length is to be removed.
    Remove Length
    Specify the amount of length being removed.
    Maintain "Asset" History
    Select to maintain a record of the asset structure before the change. A record is added to the TOOLHIST (LinearToolHistory) table, indicating the original starting and ending measurements of the asset, the date the length was removed, and the amount of length removed. You can view a history of the asset and the affected data in the InfoViewer.
  4. Click Finish.

    Infor Public Sector removes the length from the ending measurement of the asset and from the measurements of all affected data. Any items falling entirely within the removed length are expired.

    Infor Public Sector also adds history records for all affected work orders, inspections, and service requests. Because these records represent historical events rather than asset characteristics, their measurements aren’t adjusted.
