Enter Object Properties

Explanation

This activity is used to enter additional information for fixed assets objects that is not available in the form of standard information fields on IFS, e.g. the registration number, manufacturer, motor number, unloaded weight, etc. This information is entered in the form of property values. Each property value is connected to a property code that indicates the specific attribute to which the property value relates. e.g. A, is the ID of the manufacturer of an object. If you want to disclose this information in a property line, MANUFACTURER ID will be entered as the property code so that the property value A can be identified as the manufacturer.

To specify the attribute regarding which information is disclosed in the property line, enter a property code ID in the Property Code field using the List of Values. Select the property value for the property code you selected in the String Value drop-down, Number Value drop-down or the Date Value drop-down, depending on the data type of the property code. If the Use LoV for Validation in the Fixed Assets Property Codes page is enabled for the property code, you will be required to select the property code from the List of Values. If you want to further differentiate the property value you entered, enter a number in the Reference field.

Alternatively, click on Add Property Codes from Template to open the Add Property Codes from Template dialog. In the Property Template field, enter the ID of the property template from which you want to add property codes to the object. The List of Values can be used to select the relevant property template.
