The Section Status window allows you to create and maintain the various status values needed for an asset type. They are used as a criterion for displaying items from the asset type's inventory as well as for performing certain actions.
The Asset Status Name column shows the name of the status, which is displayed in various windows throughout the module.
Each status value must be assigned a status value type. (A type can be assigned to more than one status value.) Four types are available:
- New: This type is for a status value that indicates that an inventory item was recently added to the system.
- Active: This type is for a status value that indicates that an inventory item is currently in use.
- Inactive: This type is for a status value that indicates that an inventory item is no longer in use.
- Purged: This type is for a status value that indicates that an inventory item is no longer part of the system.
