Movable Equipment Inventory

Movable Equipment in Rooms- The FAMIS Space Survey functionality is used to inventory movable equipment located in rooms: Please perform the following:

1) Validate a movable equipment item remains in the same room.
2) Ensure that the movable item is being actively used
3) Add movable equipment items to rooms where they moved to
4) For movable equipment which has no operational value for your
    department and is available for transfer to other University departments,
   add a comment "Available".
5) Provide comment(s) on pertinent information regarding moves, trade-ins,
   transfers, or disposals before deleting a movable equipment
   item from a room.

Movable Equipment outside of Rooms - Items that are not located in a room owned or leased by the University needs to be inventoried. Obtain current Dept list of Moveable Equipment by running the Peoplesoft report “Mov Equip by Dept w/Comments” and downloading the data into Excel spreadsheet.

1) Validate each movable equipment item exists and where it is located.
2) Ensure that the movable item is being actively used
