The assets are filtered by the areas of the entry when you open the asset selector.

1

Referring to the image above:

  • The area filters match the areas of the entry.

  • The Asset Select window displays the assets assigned to the Piping System 1 unit.

  • The Asset Select window also displays the assets assigned to the Crude Oil Distillation area, the Plant section, the Example Refinery site, and all the assets that haven't been assigned to an area.

To find a particular asset, use the Search box. The assets with a partial or full match to the search term appear in the asset selector.

To filter the assets by fewer areas, select the area filters you want to turn off.

Referring to the image above:

  • The Crude Oil Distillation and Piping System 1 filters aren't applied to the asset list.

  • Adam (signed in) is a supervisor at the Plant section level. He can access all sub-areas and units of the Plant. Because Adam can access all the sub-areas and units, all assets assigned to the Plant section and to its sub-areas and units appear in the list. The assets assigned to the Example Refinery site also appear.

  • Ben has access to only the Piping System 1 unit, and he wasn't assigned any of the other sub-areas under Plant. When he clears the Crude Oil Distillation and Piping System 1 filters, the list of assets remains the same as before, because he doesn't have access to the other areas.

To show all assets available in your assigned areas or parent areas, select Clear.

Referring to the image above:

  • No area filters are applied, except for the assigned area of the signed in user.

  • Camilla oversees two sites, the Example Refinery and Example Factory sites. She can see all assets assigned to these sites and their sub-areas.

  • If Adam was signed in, he would only be able to see the assets assigned to the Example Refinery site and the assets assigned to the Plant section and its sub-areas.

This is the default behavior when you clear the filters. This behavior can be changed to show all assets in the asset register when the filters are cleared regardless of your assigned areas. If you want this default behavior changed, please contact j5 support.
