You use this program to establish a link between a master and sub-asset.
You typically use this for single assets that comprise components of significant value which can be identified separately. For example: An item of machinery may be made up of the main body, a motor and a switchgear. By defining the master asset as the machine itself and the motor and switchgear as sub-assets, each can be depreciated at a different rate, if required.
This pane provides a grid-style entry method for you to attach sub-assets to the master asset entered on the toolbar.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Asset | Enter the asset code you want to link to the master asset as a sub-asset. |
| Add | Attaches the sub-asset to the master asset. |
| Delete | Detaches the sub-asset from the master asset. |
-
You can only access this program when the Sub-assets allowed option is enabled (Assets Setup).
- A sub-asset cannot have any assets attached to it (i.e. it cannot itself be a master asset).
- A sub-asset cannot be attached to more than one master asset.
- Sub-assets can only be attached to master assets within the same asset group and asset location.
- The cost and depreciation defined against a sub-asset is not rolled up to its master asset.
