Once an asset class has been imported, it must be configured and activated to create assets. Asset classes are listed in the Asset Manager configuration log automatically after importing, with a default status of inactive.
To configure an asset class
| 1 | Go to the Company Workspace tab and switch to Admin mode. |
| 2 | In the left Navigator, click Configuration > Asset Manager. The Asset Manager log opens. Any asset classes that have been imported from Primavera uDesigner will be listed in the log. |
| 3 | Select an asset class record from the log window and click Open. The asset class window opens. |
| 4 | Complete the General tab as described in the following table. |
| 5 | In the Custom Print tab, utilizing MS Word’s XML schema, you can create a customized printed output (similar to creating a schema for a business process). |
| 6 | To make the asset class active, click Active for the status. This will enable assets and asset sheets to be created in User Mode. The asset class is also available to use as a project category. |
| 7 | Click OK. |
