The Unit Status Codes frame defines the stage of use or condition of a unit during its fleet life cycle. The unit status codes are hard coded in the system and control what application functions can be performed on the unit.
You can modify the Label or Description of any unit Status Code. The Trigger Field is read-only and identifies what event will trigger a unit to be designated with the unit status code.
Note: M5 licenses the product by the number of assets that are in Active or Inactive statuses or flagged for disposal. M5 keeps count of assets with Active or Inactive statuses or flagged for disposal against the licensed count. If a new asset is added, and the license count is exceeded, you will need to update your asset license count or take an existing asset that is in an Active or Inactive status or flagged for disposal and deactivate the asset in M5 to add the new asset. To update your asset license count, please contact Customer Care.
There are ten Yes or No dropdown fields for each Status Code.
Disposal Status – Certain codes cannot be disposal statuses and certain codes have to be disposal statuses. For codes that must have a certain designation, the dropdown is read-only and grayed out.
Work Orders – Controls whether units with the status code can have work orders opened against them.
Work Request – Same as the work orders dropdown. Controls whether units can have work requests opened against them.
Forecaster – Controls whether units with the unit status codes will be included when the batch process Forecaster is executed. For example, you can exclude any units in a Totaled status from Forecaster.
Reports – Controls whether units with this status will show up on reports. You can exclude all sold units for reporting purposes.
Capital – Controls whether Capitalized Cost information is allowed on the Unit Accounting frame.
Allow Sales Info – Controls whether Sales information can be entered on the Unit Disposal frame for units. Certain non-disposal statuses have this field grayed out and the Sold Disposal Status will also have this field grayed out.
Allow Unit Group – Controls whether to allow units to be assigned to a Unit Group.
Renew VED License – Controls Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) license renewal.
LOV - Controls whether the unit status code appears on the List of Values.
The Notes field is free form and can be changed for all Unit Status Codes. Limited to 4000 characters.
