Deleting an Asset from the Assets Form

An asset may be deleted from IntelliTrack. If an asset is in use, it must be retired first, and then deleted.

Warning: When an asset is deleted, it is permanently deleted from the system. If you do not want the asset to be permanently deleted, retire it instead (see "Retiring an Asset" for more information). A retired asset remains in the system and may be reactivated at any time.

  1. To delete an asset from the Assets form, select Manage > Items from the navigation pane to reach the Manage Items page.
  2. At the Manage Items page, open the Assets form for the asset by finding the asset-type item and selecting the Assets icon Addition of Assets Icon.
  3. At the Assets form, locate the asset that you want to delete.
