    An asset will only be active in a single site at a given time. In general, I think of sites as separate facilities so it doesn't make a lot of sense for an asset to reside in 2 sites at one time. You can move an asset between sites if it's something that gets transferred between the sites. Maximo tracks an ASSETID field on these records so you have a common link between them in each of the sites.

    On a WO you can use the MULTIASSETLOCCI table (either manually or via routes) to associate assets in other sites to the Work Order. This approach isn't perfect though because if you are trying to track asset costs Maximo will NOT roll up costs to records in the MULTIASSETLOCCI table.

    Thank you for the response Steven.

    Our Vehicle Maintenance and Facilities Maintenance Departments are managed within different Sites.  Possibly should have considered doing this at the Org level.  In any event, we are trying to allow both Departments the ability to charge WO actuals against generator assets throughout the District.  Thank for the info.

    Hi Robert,
    Will Rotating Items / Rotating assets solve your issue?

    Think over it... I think it might resolve the requirement...

    We can discuss further if needed
