Equipment Information

Equipment distribution rules can be set up based on any of this equipment information:

Information Type	Description
Job	The location or business unit where the equipment is being used, stored, or maintained. The system searches for a location for equipment. For example, you can specify that all equipment at a job be charged to a specific account.
Rate group	The system searches for an equipment rate group. You use category code 10 to set up rate groups. For example, you can specify that all equipment that is grouped together as backhoes be charged to a specific account.
Equipment number	The system searches for a specific piece of equipment by the equipment number. For example, you can specify that backhoe #426 be charged to a specific account.

When you relocate equipment, the system searches the Equipment Distribution Rules table (F1305) for information that matches the equipment information. After the system finds a match, it derives the account information from the table and discontinues the search. If the system finds no match, it applies the rules that you set up for the default company.
