Things To Consider:

  • When deleting an asset from project it is important to know that this will remove the asset from the project but not from the property.
  • Common scenarios to use this transaction are:
    • An asset was assigned to the project when it should not have been.  
    • The asset does not belong on the project but is an existing asset at the property / facility related to the project.

Steps:

There are two ways to delete and asset from the project:
    • Using the Edit View within the Asset Details page
    • Using the Bulk Update process

Assets that are removed from the project can always be added back to the project via the Assign Assets to Project process.

Assets are associated with a property then the property and some or all of it's assets are associated with a project.  Therefore, it is possible to have assets on related to the property that are not associated with a project.

 

Example: Renovation Project - The project scope is to renovate floors 1- 4 out of 8 floors of a facility.  The assets associated with floors 5-8 will be associated to the property but not the project.
