  2. Updated report template reflects the revised ERA name.
  3. Enhanced report output to include asset category descriptions.
  4. Additional configuration support to include or exclude specific attributes based on reporting requirements.

Global attributes have been added to these pages:

  • Add Asset
  • Adjust Asset

The global attributes appear in the Schedule 16 report. You can add the global descriptive flexfields using the File-Based Import Template or the ADFdi spreadsheet.

Additionally, the report templates have been updated to reflect the era name change. The Schedule 16 reports have been enhanced to incorporate the major category description.
