Number Series - Asset Status

This page describes the Number Series - Asset Status setting in the Assets module.

---

Each new record in the Asset Status register that you enter will be given a unique identifying number, based on a sequential series.

You can have more than one sequential number series running at the same time, or at different times. For example you may want to use different sequences to represent different departments or different branches, or you may want to use different sequences to represent different fiscal or calendar years.

The Number Series - Asset Status setting allows you to take advantage of this feature. Here you can define the number sequences that you would like to use with Asset Status records.

To open the Number Series - Asset Status setting, ensure you are in the Assets module and double-click (Windows/macOS) or tap (iOS/Android) 'Number Series - Asset Status' in the 'Settings' list. The following window will appear:

Enter each new Number Series on the first blank line. The sequences that you enter should not overlap. The Comment will be shown in the 'Paste Special' list, so enter some text that will help you choose a number from the correct sequence. The N/L field common to all Number Series settings is not used with Asset Status records.

When the setting is complete, click the [Save] button in the Button Bar (Windows/macOS) or tap √ (iOS/Android) to save the changes. To close the window without saving changes, click the close box (Windows/macOS) or tap < (iOS/Android).

When you enter a new Asset Status record, the next number in the first valid Number Series entered to this setting will be used as a default. If necessary, you can change to the next number in any other Number Series using 'Paste Special'.

If you leave the setting empty, Asset Status Numbers will start at 1 and continue consecutively. If you want to start from another number, simply specify it in a new Asset Status record before saving.
