Converting Locations
Use Location Migration to convert legacy locations to locations used in the enhanced Fixed Assets module. To convert legacy locations, use the following figure and instructions.
Location Migration
1 Use the arrow keys to scroll through the legacy locations. The legacy Location Code, Description, Sub-Account, and Cost Center display. For each legacy location, the location ID automatically fills in with the legacy location ID.
2 If an asset does not use this location, select the Delete option and press Enter to remove it. The system verifies that the location is not used and prompts to confirm the deletion.
3 To convert the legacy location, select the Update option and press Enter.
4 Complete the following fields:
• Location ID
• Description
• Entity
• Sub-Account
• Cost Center
• Address
• Telephone
5 If an error exists with the new location, the Error Code field displays one of the following codes:
• ID err: An error exists with the new ID. For example, another module uses the location ID and you must set up a new ID.
• en err: An error exists with the new entity. For example, the entity code is undefined in Entity Code Maintenance (25.3.1).
• sub err: An error exists with the new sub-account. For example, the sub-account is undefined in Sub-Account Code Maintenance (25.3.17).
• cc err: An error exists with the new cost center. For example, the cost center is undefined in Cost Center Code Maintenance (25.3.20).
6 After you correct any errors, the Completed field updates to Yes for the converted location.
7 Repeat steps 1 through 6 for each legacy location.
