What this screen is for
The dashboard summarises everything in the asset register. Five tiles give the total number of assets, their purchase value, their current value, the total depreciation recorded, and maintenance costs for the current month. Beneath them the page breaks assets down by status, by category and by condition, and lists recent additions, the highest-value assets, upcoming maintenance, expiring warranties, recent depreciation entries and recent transfers.
When to use it
Open it for a periodic review of the asset base — what it is worth now against what it cost, what is falling due for service, and which warranties are about to lapse. From here, follow through to the register to act on anything that needs attention.
What you see on this screen
Five tiles head the page: Total Assets, Purchase Value, Current Value, Total Depreciation and Maintenance (This Month).
- Asset Status — counts for Available, Assigned, Maintenance and Disposed.
- Asset Condition — a bar per condition with the number of assets in it.
- Assets by Category — each category with its asset count and total value, and a Manage Categories link.
- Top 5 Most Valuable Assets — name, asset number and category, the purchase price, and the book value beneath it.
- Monthly Maintenance Cost — what servicing has cost month by month.
- Upcoming Maintenance — the job title, the asset and its number, and either the due date or OVERDUE, with the estimated cost where one is recorded.
- Expiring Warranties — the asset, the warranty and its provider, how many days are left, and the expiry date.
- Recently Added — the newest entries in the register.
- Recent Activity — split into Depreciation entries and Transfers.
Filters and actions
There is nothing to filter here; the page always describes the whole register. All Assets and Add Asset sit at the top, and the panels carry View All links into the lists behind them.
