Asset Movement

You can configure movement type for an asset such as Return movement type or Default movement type for tracking the movement of asset. The default movement type includes Store Movement, Floor Movement, From Repair, and To Repair. The return movement type process includes the various reasons for returning the assets.

When any of these movements are initiated, a workflow can be triggered to obtain as many as 10 levels of approvals.
