Use

Technical data can only be managed to a limited extent in the asset master record.

Features

However, you can enter a virtually unlimited amount of technical description using the long text function. In addition, it is possible to link any number of original documents (blueprints, bills of material, and so on) to the asset master record, using the document management system. These options are available for all fixed assets. If separate master records are to be created as technical assets, you should deactivate the book depreciation area for these fixed assets in order to prevent posting taking place.

You can enter detailed technical information for the maintenance of equipment in the Plant Maintenance (PM) component. You enter this information in the functional location and the equipment master record in PM. You use a field in the equipment master record to assign a piece of equipment to a specific asset.
