Supplemental Data

You might need to store information about an asset that is not included in the standard master tables. This is supplemental data. You can use supplemental data to further define the assets in the system. After you set up supplemental data, you can use it to report and track asset details that are important to the company, but are not included on the asset master record. You can define as many types of supplemental data as you need.

You define and maintain supplemental data by asset class. For example, you might set up supplemental data for an asset class that includes motor graders. The data might include fuel capacities, horsepower, oil readings, and so on. The system stores the supplemental data types that you set up in the Asset Mgmt Supplemental Database Types table (F12090).

You can use that information to set up supplemental data for the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Fixed Assets system, but select Supplemental Data Setup from the Fixed Asset System Setup menu (G1241)instead of choosing Supplemental Data Setup from the CIF Supplemental Data menu.
