Equipment Movements
The Movements sub-module tracks the physical transfer of equipment between locations, sites, and jobs. Every time a machine is relocated, a movement record is created to maintain a complete audit trail of where each asset has been and where it currently resides.
Movement records are essential for accurate asset tracking, utilization analysis, and cost allocation. They update the machine's current location in real time and provide historical data for equipment lifecycle reporting.
