Parent Information

If you track parent information for equipment components, you can easily review and revise parent information when component equipment moves from one parent to another. For example, assume that you warranty a drive train component for a parent piece of equipment. If the drive train component is exchanged for warranty service, you can indicate a new parent for the subsequently repaired drive train.

When you initially inquire on a parent piece of equipment, the system displays all of the parents to which a component has been assigned. You can toggle the view format to review a history of other components that have been assigned to the parent upon which you inquired. If the history records are extensive, you can limit the information that appears according to specific dates.

After you review parent information for a component, you can access Asset Master Revisions to indicate a new parent for a component piece of equipment.
