Only qualifying items appear in this section. There may be multiple items. To qualify, an item's total amount must exceed the capital asset threshold (5000) and the object code used in the accounting line must be a capital asset object code.

The Add button applies only to the Location data. Adding a location causes the system to create a section for the address. This section shows only the heading line and a Show button that may be used to display the address detail below the Location section. Additional locations may be entered and added as needed, each with a specified quantity of the item. For example, if 20 capital items are ordered for use at different locations, the Add button may be used to enter the locations and specify the number of assets to be placed at each.
