When can you Install/Dismantle?

As a piece of equipment is an individual object, you can only install or dismantle a single piece of equipment (for the master record you are currently editing) at a functional location from the equipment master record.

You can call up the installation/dismantling functions when creating the equipment master record. However, you can only represent the installation of a piece of equipment at a functional location immediately provided the functional location master record has already been created in the system and permits equipment installation.

If all necessary master records exist in the system, you can represent an installation or dismantling that was carried out some time before its entry into the system. Date and time fields are provided to enable you to do this.

If you do not enter an installation or dismantling time, the system automatically enters the date and valid system time.

What are the Consequences of Installing/Dismantling?

When you install a piece of equipment, the system - if it is set up accordingly - creates a new entry in the equipment usage list. This contains the current data for the piece of equipment.

When the piece of equipment is dismantled, the system automatically closes the current entry in the equipment usage list and enters the date and time of dismantling. It also creates a new entry containing the new equipment data.
