Entering New Assets

Entering assets is a three phase process:

• Enter the general asset information.
• Enter the book-specific information. (You should start with the Financial book so you can make the most use of the system's defaults to save you valuable data entry time in the other books.)
• Enter any notes or images, if applicable.

To add individual assets into an organization

1. Do any of the following:
   • Select Asset/Add from the menu bar.
   • Click the Add an Asset task.

The system displays a blank set of asset tabs in Asset Detail.

2. Complete the general information fields on the Main tab.
3. Complete the book information fields on the Main tab.
4. Complete the Images tab if you want to attach images to this asset.
5. Complete the Notes tab if you want to store additional information for this asset not covered by any of the other tabs.
6. Save the asset by doing any one of the following:
   • Click the Save Asset button.
   • Press Ctrl+S.
   • Select Asset/Save from the menu bar.

The application assigns a System Number to the asset and displays the System Number and description underneath the title bar of Asset Detail. The asset is now saved.
