Entering Purchasing Items on the Fly in the Equipment Hub

When you enter a new asset or equipment item directly in the Equipment hub, you can also enter a new purchasing item upon which to base the asset or equipment item.

You normally select an existing purchasing item upon which to base a new asset or equipment item. You select the existing item from the Item Number drop-down list in the Equipment hub. The purchasing items are set up in Settings > Purchasing & Inventory > Items Master.

However, if none of the existing purchasing items in the Item Number drop-down list apply for a new asset or equipment item, you can enter a new purchasing item on the fly while still in the Equipment hub. You enter the item in the Item Number field.
