Workflow checked in the documentation demo: . Screens and access can vary by installed version and role.

Overview

Engineers and technical staff can browse the Assets register by Ship Functional Identification (SFI) when they know the system an item belongs to but not its exact name. Grouped rows show the relationship between systems and components.

Before You Start

  • Sign in with either assets-view or inventory-view permission (modules.assets.view or modules.inventory.view).
  • You need access to the vessel and an existing equipment register. This example uses BB COASTER.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1. Select the vessel and grouped register

    Expand Inventory in the left menu and select Assets.

    Choose BB COASTER under Select Vessel.

    Clear Search Components. If the toolbar shows Grouped, click it to return to grouped rows. A toolbar button labelled Flat means the grouped view is already active.
