Asset Type Networks Tab

This tab is used to define on which Network Types Asset Items of the selected Type can be located. Asset Types can ‘belong’ to a single Network Type or be ‘shared’ by multiple Network Types allowing Assets to span multiple Datum Types.

Assets which are not directly located on a Network may also be modelled. These are referred to as Off Network Assets. Refer to page 48 for more information relating to Off Network Assets.

Only Network Types Flagged as being ‘Datum’ Network Types, can be selected in this window.

When you click on this tab, any Datum Network Types already defined for the Asset Type will be displayed in a grid. To add another Datum Network Type press the button.

To update an existing network type for this asset, press the button next to the network type. The Edit Network Type dialog opens:

Network Type (Required)(Dropdown): Enter the Network Type on which Asset Items of this Type may be located. Note that Only Network Types Flagged as being ‘Datum’ Network Types in Network Types can be selected in this window.

The Unique Network Type Code and Description will be displayed in the adjacent fields.

Location Mandatory (Yes/No switch): Set this switch to ‘Yes’ if an Asset Item of the selected Type must have a location record on the selected Network Type.

Note: When an Asset Item of this type is added a message will be displayed informing the User that it must be located.

Start Date (Required): Enter the date from which the association of the selected Asset Type and Network Type is valid.

End Date (Required): Enter the date from which the association of the selected Asset Type and Network Type ceases to be valid.
