Create a new assignment record

1. At the Asset Management main menu, select Assets / Asset Level Depreciation | Work With Assets. The Display Assets - All Assets screen appears.
2. Right-click on the asset and select Manage Unit Assignments. The Unit Assignment History for Asset screen appears, listing all unit assignments for the asset.
3. Click Change Unit Assignment . If there is already a future assignment record, you will see the error message "Change Assigned Unit not allowed. Future Assignment exists." Otherwise, the Change Asset's Unit Assignment enter screen appears.
4. Select the new unit the asset will be assigned to (only owned units will appear on the selection screen).
5. Enter the assignment date. If you enter a future assignment date, the Confirm Future Date Change screen will appear.
6. Click Continue. You will return to the Change Asset's Unit Assignment enter screen.
7. Click Change Unit Assignment .
   • The program will create a new record in the Asset/Unit Assign file. If the new unit assignment has a future date, the new record will be given a status of Future (F), and the current assignment's status will be left at Current (C). If the new unit assignment is to be effective immediately, the new record will be given the status of Current, and the preceding assignment record will be set to History status.
   • The Assignment End Date and Time in the old record are updated to one minute less than the new assignment date/time.
   • The function will also update the depreciation schedule details for changes in pool, facility, and equipment type that come from the new unit.
