Duplicate Asset Items

Use the Create Duplicate Item feature to quickly add multiple identical items to an asset. For example, you may have purchased 10 computers on the same invoice, and you want to be able to identify each one by its serial number so you can track its condition and disposal separately. You could then split the items and move them to a new asset so you can designate the location of each computer.

When you select an asset item to duplicate, one exact copy is created in the New state.
