Microsoft Dynamics NAV Asset Maintenance

The Asset Guardian – User Guide 4.4

Chapter 1 – Introduction

Nomenclature

For navigational purposes, The Asset Guardian provides a menu driven user interface utilizing Microsoft Dynamics™ NAV. With drop down options, tabs and many of the traditional navigational tools found in other Microsoft® products, The Asset Guardian provides a human navigational interface designed to increase efficiency and promote usability.

In general, the forms presented by The Asset Guardian are structured in the same format with a common functional nomenclature. Many forms used by The Asset Guardian are divided into a Header and Line section. The Header often provides fields to be populated with general information about the transaction. Lines follow the Header information and provide vertical space for recording “lists” of information.

Where appropriate on a form, named “tabs” are provided to group logical views of related information. You may position your pointer on a tab and click it to display the related information.

Equipment Card

On the bottom of some forms, the availability of additional activities is designated by one or more buttons with a down Carrot when multiple options are available on the button. Place the cursor on the button and click to access the options.

In some cases, data fields may have icons next to them representing other operations that may be performed:
