Asset History Events

What events can I view on the History tab?

The History tab provides a history of major milestones and actions performed on an asset. The system automatically records and tracks specified actions, including the date and time they occurred, and displays a viewable history.

You can decide which events in an asset’s life you want to track. For more information, see Setting Up History Events.
