Select the “Create Asset Structure Code” link under the “Equipment Induction” business component.

The “Create Asset Structure Code” page appears.

Enter the following fields:

Asset Structure	The asset structure to be created (Alphanumeric, 30). Mandatory. Ensure that the asset structure is unique.
	Enter the description of the asset structure alongside (Alphanumeric, 150).
	Zoom facility available.
Status	Use the drop-down list box and assign a status for the asset structure. The system provides the options ”Active” and “Inactive”. Set this field to “Inactive”, if you do not wish to refer the asset structure in future in other related activities. The system sets this field to “Active”, by default.
Type	Use the drop-down list box to specify the type of the asset structure. The system provides the following options:
	Rotable– Select this option to create an asset structure for rotable equipment.
	Spares – Select this option to create a spare structure.
	Normal – Select this option to create an asset structure for equipment other than “Rotable” or “Spares”.
	The system displays “Normal” by default
Classification	Use the drop-down list box to specify the class, to which the equipment created from the asset structure would belong. The system lists all the classifications that have been defined in the “Create Specification Template” activity and which are in the “Active” status. Leave the field blank, if you do not wish to specify a classification for the equipment. The system leaves the field blank, by default.
Sub-Classification	Use the drop-down list box to specify the sub-classification of the equipment. On selection of a classification in the “Classification” field, the system fills this field with all the sub-classifications that are defined in the “Create Specification Template” activity, which are in the “Active” status. Leave the field blank, if you do not wish to specify a sub-classification for the equipment. The system leaves the field blank, by default.
Default Numbering For Equipment Creation Prefix	The prefix for defaulting the numbering for the equipment. (Alphanumeric, 25).
Starting No	The starting number of the prefix. (Alphanumeric, 5).

Click the “Create Asset Structure Code” pushbutton, to create the asset structure code.

The system displays the following fields in the “Record Statistics” group box:

Created By	The login ID of the user who created the asset structure.
Created Date	The date and time on which the asset structure was created.
Last Modified By	In this activity, the system displays the login ID of the user who last modified the asset structure.
Last Modified Date	In this activity, the system displays the date and time on which the user has last modified the asset structure.

To proceed, carry out the following

Select the “Attach Parameters” link at the bottom of the page to attach parameters to the asset structure.

Select the “Attach Spare Parts” link at the bottom of the page to attach spare parts to the asset structure.

Select the “Attach TSGs” link at the bottom of the page to attach trouble shooting guides to the asset structure.

Select the “Attach Task/SP” link at the bottom of the page to attach task or procedure categories to the asset structure.

Creating asset structure code – An overview

In this page, you can create an asset structure by providing a unique code and a description. You can specify the type of the asset structure and assign a status to it. You can specify the classification and sub-classification to the asset structure. The equipment created from the asset structure will inherit the parameters and task and procedure categories that are defined for the classification – sub-classification.

The system creates the asset structure and records the login ID of the user who created the asset structure, along with the date and time on which the asset structure was created.

What you can do in this page

Specify the type of the asset structure

Attach the asset structure to a specification template

Specify the type of the asset structure

Set the “Type” field to “Rotable”, to create an asset structure for rotable equipment.
Set the “Type” field to “Spares”, to create an asset structure for spares.
Set the “Type” field to “Normal”, to create an asset structure for normal equipment.

Attach the asset structure to a specification template

You can attach the asset structure to a specification template. The equipment created from the asset structure will inherit the parameters and task and procedure categories that are defined for the classification – sub-classification of the specification template.

Enter the classification and subclassification in the “Classification” and “SubClassification” fields.
