The asset register

Every machine you maintain — finding them, adding them, and how the hierarchy works.

Everything you maintain, in one list.

Columns

Column	Notes
Asset number	Your identifier — click to open
Name	What people call it
Type	Pump, motor, compressor — from your asset settings
Criticality	How much it matters when it stops
Status	Active, down, under maintenance, standby, retired
Location	Where it is in the location tree
Health	A score out of 100, from Reliability

Search, filter, choose columns and export as on any list.

The hierarchy

Assets form a tree. A bearing belongs to a pump; the pump sits on a production line; the line is in a building; the building is at a site.

The tree is not decoration — work, cost, downtime and failures roll up it. A bearing that fails four times is also four failures on the pump, which is how a component problem becomes visible as a machine problem.

Set an asset’s parent on the asset itself. See the whole tree on the Hierarchy tab of any asset.

Adding an asset

New on this screen, or New → Create Asset in the header.

Field	Notes
Asset number	Must be unique. Your own numbering scheme
Name	Descriptive — Cooling Water Pump P-102
Type and Category	From your configured lists
Criticality	Drives priority and routing
Location	Where it physically is
Parent asset	Where it sits in the tree
Manufacturer and Model	For parts compatibility and warranty
Serial number	The manufacturer’s
Purchase cost and date	Feeds replacement analysis
Custom fields	Whatever else your plant tracks

Manufacturers, models, types, categories and criticality levels are configured once under asset settings.

Criticality

Criticality says how much it matters when this machine stops. It drives the priority of work raised against it, how routing ranks candidates, and how Reliability weighs a failure. Configure the scale under asset settings.
