Financial Management › Assets › Change an Asset Model

Change an Asset Model

You can change the model for selected assets. For example, you identified 15 assets that were entered into the product with an incorrect server model. You search for the assets and select them. You then can change the server model for all selected assets simultaneously.

Follow these steps:

1. Click Asset.
2. Click Change Asset Model under Mass Change Utilities on the left.
3. Select the original model and the new model and click Go.

   All assets that have the original model are listed in the Search results. If you do not select an original model, all assets that do not have models are listed.

   Note: If the original model asset family has extended fields that the new model asset family does not have, a warning message appears. If you proceed with changing the asset model, the extended fields are lost. To avoid the data loss, define the extended fields for the new model asset family before you change the asset model.

4. (Optional) Select Assign Model Class to All Assets if you want all the listed assets to use the new model class.

   Note: This check box is available only if the new model has a class.

5. Select the individual assets that you want to change or select all assets.
6. Click Change Model.

   Your request is submitted.

7. Click View Mass Change Utilities Progress to see the status of your job.
