Assign the Asset "Tag Number" at PO receipt stage

Our customer has a requirement to enter the Asset Tag Number for an item when the purchase order is receipted (or even at inspection stage for 4-way match PO's). The tag number entered, should then flow through to the FA module.
Does anyone know if this can be achieved with standard functionality, or if it can be done with a customization?
Here is the basic flow steps, the words in brackets () are the change we're looking for.
1. Create PO for item coded to asset clearing account
2. Receipt PO (and assign the Asset Tag Number)
3. Match the PO to the AP invoice.
4. Validate and account the AP invoice and transfer that to GL.
5. Run the Mass Additions Create Process
6. Find the Asset in Mass Additions Create (the Tag Number field should be populated with the value entered in step 2)
7. Post Asset

Hi,
This is unfortunately not possible with standards but you may try using Badi ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST => PROCESS_ACCOUNT.

  • Unable to set asset tag number in bios 1.17 on Thinkpad Yoga S1

    Hi I have a bunch of Thinkpad Yoga Machine Type 20CD002UUS and I've been trying to set the asset tag in the bios.  According to support I can use this tool: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-a​nd-netbooks/thinkpad-yoga-series-laptops/thinkpad-​...
    It was working great on a bunch of machines and then just stopped.  I realized the only difference was the bios version.
    On the ones that WORKED the bios is 1.16, the ones that DO NOT WORK are bios 1.17.
    Has anyone has this issue?  It doesn't say anything about the BIOS version being an issue, but it's realy annoying.
    Anyone have any pointers?
    Machines are running Windows 8.1 64 bit
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Good day and welcome to the community.
    Sorry you're having difficulties.
    Looking at the v1.17 BIOS readme: http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mob​iles/gquj12ww.txt
    I see one item that may be related, stressing "may":  "(New) Improved the UEFI BIOS security feature."
    Wish I could offer more.

  • Assign the Bookmark Tag from 1 site to another site which has none

    The majority of the Web Sites which I've Bookmarked have Tags assign [assume they did it themselves]. But, a few of mine have none whatsoever. How can I use another site's Tag since they are similar in nature (i.e. Health, Exercise, Food, etc.)

    Anton ~ iWeb stores everything in a Domain file, normally located in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder (although it can be moved). That's the file you need to transfer to your other Mac — not the published (HTML) files. See also NOTE 1 here:

  • Asset tag value input

    Is there any way to modify the value of the Asset Tag field for a device? We are running ZAM 7.00.0049 SP1 IR13.

    I always assumed this is non-editable because it is the Asset Tag value
    read from the PC's BIOS - not the Asset (Tag) number that you might stick
    onto the machine case.
    These may be the same thing - if you or your hardware supplier poke this
    value into the BIOS on all new machines (e.g. if used to automate
    workstation naming in the ZDM imaging build process). Many vendors just
    use the Serial Number field by default, leaving the Asset Tag field blank
    unless you ask them to use it.
    Even if you circumvented the ZAM tools and edited this directly in the ZAM
    database, I'd expect it to be replaced the next time that machine runs a
    scan - with whatever is found in the BIOS
    (You'd need to test this to know for sure - personally I wouldn't mess
    with it, I'd add a UDF for my company's Asset Tag or get it inserted into
    the BIOS field)

  • Matching Machine Serial Number to a Asset Tag

    Is there a way to take the machine Serial Number (From System Profiler possiblely) and match it to a file that has Serial Numbers and Asset Tags from a inventory database?
    1. Define Serial Number through System Profiler
    2. Scan File with Serial Numbers and Asset Tags which are tied together.
    3. Once match is made the Asset Tag is known
    3. Make the Asset Tag a environment variable.
    G4 1.42   Mac OS X (10.3.5)  

    You don't define the format of the file that contains asset numbers and serial numbers (and I think the 'tie together' is making it sound harder than it is.
    In any case:
    1. Define Serial Number through System Profiler
    system_profiler will tell you this. You can ask for the specific hardware information, then parse out the serial number, like:
    /usr/sbin/system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | awk '/Serial/ { print $3}'
    2. Scan File with Serial Numbers and Asset Tags which are tied together.
    Without knowing this file format it's impossible to tell how to do this for sure, but if the file was a simple tab-delimited file of asset number<tab>serial number, then:
    awk '/<serial_number>/ {print $1}' /path/to/asset_file
    You can now string the two together, like:
    #! /bin/sh
    SERIAL=`/usr/sbin/system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | awk '/Serial/ { print $3 }'`
    echo "Found serial number ${SERIAL}"
    ASSETNO=`/usr/bin/awk "/${SERIAL}/ { print \\$1 }" /var/tmp/assets`
    echo "Found asset number $ASSETNO"
    export ASSETNO
    Note the user of double-backslashes in the second awk to overcome shell expansion issues.

  • Can I use the same trip number for several travelers?

    Hi everybody.
    This is my question... We need (in travel expenses) to use any field in order to group (add) several trips made for several travelers (in same dates).
    Expl: several travelers made the same trip (with different receipts and costs). We need to create a "supra-level" group (which could help our user to summarize, authorize, etc).
    I have made some tests changing the trip number assignment (in trip schema) to external one. The system seems not to have any problem if I assign the same trip number to several travelers (please, could you tell me if this is correct?).
    I´m not sure this could be the best solution, because I have one question... If I have travel request and travel expenses... can I assign external range numbers to the travel request? (how can I do it?).
    Please, could you tell me something about this? (if this is not correct, could you tell me if it´s possible to create a new field to do this?)
    Thanks!!!!!!

    Hi,
    As mentionned in an earlier response, you cannot assign the same trip number to multiple employees.
    If you are looking to group together similar claims based on the type of travel which was done, you can always use any of the following fields which can be made 'available' on the entry screen.  That is the 'Activity Type' or the 'Trip Type Specific' or the 'Trip Type Enterprise'.  By creating categories of types of travel, you can then use these values as selection parameters in your reports to isolate specific costs related to specific activities.
    For example, you know that many employees will be traveling for a specific conference and you want to be able to report on the total cost of that conference, you could create an Activity Type and ask employees to complete the field with the appropriate value when completing the claim.  Then you could create a report on that Activity Type only.
    Another option would be to use Internal Orders.  Create an internal order, have the employees assign their costs to the IO and then run a CO - IO report.
    Depending on how 'permanent' your employee groupings are, you could also use some fields on Infotype 17 to assign different employees to different employee groupings.  These employee grouping values are also available as selection parameters in the reports and can allow you to isolate groupings of individuals. 
    It all depends where you want to create the grouping....
    Hope this helps you somewhat...

  • Automatic creation of asset sub number in order

    Hi  Guruz,
    i have an urgent issue regarding asset topic  and sub number.
    my issue is my client purchased 100 computer sets. Each computer set  has an unique asset number. now we are using multiple account assignment concept. Earlier my client use to purchase 100 computers by including 100 line items in the purchase order in item overview  each having an asset number(that belongs to a particular asset class which is in turn assigned to one G/L account). So we can see that it is a very lengthy job. Instead my client wants that they should enter only one line item containing the asset number in the item overview of the PO.
    At present we are using multiple account assignment as we are creating the asset sub number under one main asset.
    With this we are able to prevent entering 100 line items in the item overview but we are entering the 100 sub number data in item details of the PO.
    item overview look out:
    Ex: asset no: 100268           quantity -100       price- 20000
    item detail look out:
    quantity           asset         sub number
    1                       100268          1
    1                      100268            2.....
    similarly upto 100......
    THis is done in account assignment tab of PO.
    REQUIREMENT:
    when i am giving asset number 100268  sysytem should automatically give/propose 100 sub number as we have defined 100 sub number in as11 for that asset number. I.e: when we are putting asset number 100268 in the item overview it should reflect 100 quantities in item detail.
    is it possible???
    pl discuss...
    in the sub item field the asset number 100268 will automatically divide into 100 sub numbers automatically.

    Hi,
    This is unfortunately not possible with standards but you may try using Badi ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST => PROCESS_ACCOUNT.

  • Tecra All Models - How to set Asset Tag

    Hello,
    For the past year we have used a tool to set the asset tag on toshiba notebooks. It runs from an external floppy drive, but the disk is overwritten en we do not have any copies of this tool.
    I am pretty sure one of my colleagues downloaded this tool from the toshiba site but we are unable to find it anywhere. Can someone provide a download link or an alternative tool wich is able to set and display a notebook's asset tag.
    The commands we used in this tool are
    assettag /da
    assettag /sa
    Hope you can help
    Kind Regards,
    Sander74
    _**UPDATE** The filename of this tool is assettag.exe**_
    Message was edited by: Sander74

    Thanks for your answers.
    We tried to undelete the content of the overwritten floppy but we were not able to restore all data. We did manage to restore some text files, htm file and a diz file. I'll post the content below.
    As you can see there a comments that suggest that this is indeed a toshiba tool. Perhaps someone reading this has better searching skills then i do.

    SM BIOS Asset Tag Utility Version 1.02.1
    Copyright (c) 1999 Toshiba America Information System. All rights reserved.
    The SM BIOS Asset Tag Utility displays a variety of useful data fields from the SM BIOS. In addition, is capable of setting or changing the value of the asset tag field of the SM BIOS. Since the asset tag field is in the BIOS, the hard disk may be reformatted and reinstalled without effecting the field's contents.
    This program is a command line, non-interactive program, suitable for use in batch files and other automated environments. It is a real mode DOS program, and can not be run in pure 32 bit environments such as Windows NT.
    usage: ASSETTAG &lt;switch&gt; [string]
    Switch
    Usage
    /DA
    Display asset tag string
    /DM
    Display system manufacturer string
    /DP
    Display model string
    /DC
    Display chassis serial number string
    /DS
    Display system serial number string
    /SA &lt;string&gt;
    Write asset tag string
    /F &lt;filename&gt;
    Write asset tag string based on contents of specified serial number - asset tag mapping file (see format below).
    The Asset Tag has a maximum length of 31 bytes.
    Examples:
    ASSETTAG /SA 12345
    ASSETTAG /SA "123 456" (quotes to embed spaces.)
    ASSETTAG /F ATLIST.DAT
    The /F switch specifies that the asset tag to be written to the BIOS should be obtained from a file, the name of which is given as a parameter following the /F switch. This file contains a list of serial numbers and asset tags in the format:
    Serial number white space Asset tag
    Each line should contain a system serial number, with no leading white space. Following the serial number, one or more white space characters (space or tab) delimit the serial number from the start of the asset tag. The first following non-white space character is taken to be the start of the asset tag, which will continue until the end of the line. Thus, asset tags may not begin with white space, but can contain almost any character thereafter.
    For example:
    12345678 FA99485
    TE992837 ACCT992
    30899283 Loaner Unit
    If the lines above were placed in a file and used by the assettag program, then a PC with the serial number of 12345678 would be set with the tag FA99485. A PC with the serial number 30899283 would be set with the asset tag value of Loaner Unit.

  • Add/update asset tag into T430 bios

    We received 5 T430 laptops without the Asset tag added into the BIOS.
    Previously (in T410 and T420 we could run a tool to add this information, I searched the website and couldn't found such a tool for the T430.
    On this board I found one solution but ether I do something wrong or the solution doesn't work:
    http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/Adding-Asset-Tag-information-into-the-Bios-...
