for the
desired parent facility.This option adds a room inventory item and automatically generates an asset for the asset type. Use this option for asset types that do not have specific serial numbers.
If an asset type is defined in Odyssey HMS with the Only Track Usage By Asset Type option selected, it is only based by the asset type—not by an individual serial number. With this configuration, each inventory item is not unique, but accessing one item debits from the list of the items. It can still be tracked by a temporary Asset and Serial Number as it is added to the room inventory.
