What is Assets & maintenance in Dino ERP?

In detail

How Assets & maintenance works

How does Dino ERP manage a fixed-asset register?

Each asset belongs to a category and a location, and carries its cost, in-service date and depreciation settings. The register supports transfers between locations and branches, valuations and disposals, so the record always reflects where the asset is and what it is worth.

  • Categories and locations
  • Transfers between branches
  • Valuations
  • Disposals

How does depreciation work and does it reach the accounts?

You run depreciation for a period, review the result, and post it. Posting creates journal entries in the general ledger, which respect open fiscal periods, so depreciation is part of the same books as the rest of finance.

Can maintenance be scheduled by date or by usage?

Yes. Maintenance plans can trigger on a calendar interval or on a meter reading, for example every 500 running hours, and generate work orders when due. Meters are updated by recording readings against the asset.

  • Date-based plans
  • Meter-based plans
  • Automatic work-order generation

What does a maintenance work order record?

A work order records the asset, the task, who did it and the status through to completion, giving you a maintenance history per asset. Maintenance cost reports total the cost by asset so you can see which equipment is most expensive to keep running.

How is downtime tracked?

The downtime log records stoppages against an asset in minutes with a reason. Combined with work orders, it shows how much production time breakdowns cost.

Who can see and change asset data?

Asset resources (category, location, asset, depreciation run, disposal, transfer, maintenance plan, work order, meter, downtime, report) each have their own permission keys enforced in the backend. All changes are written to the audit trail with old and new values.

FAQ

Assets & maintenance: questions buyers ask

Does the asset module post depreciation to the general ledger?

Yes. Depreciation runs post journal entries, subject to open fiscal periods.

Can I transfer an asset to another branch?

Yes. Asset transfers move an asset between locations and branches and keep the history.

Can I schedule maintenance by hours of use?

Yes. Maintenance plans can be driven by meter readings as well as by dates.

Does it track downtime?

Yes. Downtime is logged in minutes against an asset, with reports alongside maintenance cost.

Is there IoT or machine integration for meters?

Meter readings are recorded in the system by users or through the API. Live machine connectors are not included.
