The Asset Management overview is the module dashboard. It gives a quick picture of the individually tracked asset register before you open detailed records or reports.
Dashboard information
The page shows:
- the total number of individually tracked asset records;
- asset counts grouped by current status;
- asset counts grouped by current location;
- asset counts grouped by category;
- the number of configured locations; and
- the number of configured asset categories.
Status indicators help distinguish healthy, active, attention-required, and end-of-life states. Use the full Status Management page to understand each state and what can change it.
Review the dashboard
- Open Asset Management from the OCTO Ops main navigation.
- Select Overview.
- Review the headline total to confirm the expected number of individually tracked records.
- Check the status breakdown for damaged, under-repair, lost, or other records that may need attention.
- Check location and category distributions for unexpected or uncategorized concentrations.
- Open Asset Registry or the relevant operational submodule when further action is needed.
The dashboard counts individual Asset records. A bulk group stores only a quantity and therefore is not added to the headline asset total or the per-status, per-location, and per-category Asset record charts. Per-unit groups do create individual records and are included.
When to use Reports instead
The dashboard is a current snapshot. Use Asset Reports when you need filters, exports, audit findings, utilization, movement history, acquisition values, depreciation estimates, disposal history, or department cost analysis.
