What Are Asset Transfers?
Asset Transfers allow you to move equipment throughout its lifecycle while maintaining accurate inventory records within Asset Manager.
Transfers can be used to:
Move equipment between company locations
Redeploy equipment to another operating area
Transfer ownership to a customer after a sale
Record equipment disposals
Maintain a complete transfer history
Every transfer creates a permanent record that can be reviewed later.
Types of Asset Transfers
Fuelled supports two primary transfer types.
Internal Transfer
Internal Transfers are used when equipment remains owned by your organization but is moved between locations or operational areas.
Common examples include:
Moving equipment between yards
Redeploying assets to another project
Transferring equipment to another facility
Moving inventory between warehouses
Reassigning equipment between business units
Ownership does not change during an Internal Transfer.
Disposition Transfer
Disposition Transfers are used when equipment leaves your organization's ownership or is permanently removed from inventory.
Fuelled supports multiple disposition types.
External Transfer
Transfers ownership of equipment to a customer following a completed sale.
Use this when:
Equipment has been sold
Ownership changes to another company
Equipment leaves your inventory
Scrapped
Marks equipment as permanently dismantled or disposed of.
Use this when equipment:
Has reached end of life
Is beyond economical repair
Has been recycled or dismantled
Other
Used for any disposition that doesn't fall under a standard workflow.
Examples include:
Insurance write-offs
Donations
Internal write-offs
Other custom business processes
