Transferring equipment between organizations

Transfer equipment between organizations within your company if you use multi-organization security.

  • It is flagged as Out of Service.
  • It is associated with a change notice.
  • It has work orders with a system Status of Work Request or Released.
  • It has work orders with a system Status of Bypassed or Awaiting Execution and for which there are open purchase orders, purchase requisitions, or items being held in store.
  • It has a parent record within an equipment hierarchy.
  • It has a child record that has a second parent record.
  • It has a child record that belongs to a different organization.
  • It has non-superseded PM work orders and PM Revision Control is On.
  • It has a child equipment record that already exists in the new organization.
  • It already exists in the new organization, but its children do not.
  • It already exists in the new organization with a system Status of Awaiting Purchase, Installed, or In Store.
Note: You can transfer an equipment record that has child records in an equipment hierarchy; however, the child equipment records must meet the same criteria as noted above.
