In circumstances where the obvious outcome is a replacement, enabling "Replace Now" on a remark allows for the quoting of an on-the-spot replacement product with a single press.

When you use Replace Now in the app, you will be prompted to select a remark associated with replacement and update the details of the asset. This will also add the appropriate replacement product to be billed against the task.

Note: This only updates the existing details on the current asset, which will keep service/maintenance history on the same entry.

1. Click on Control Panel, then click on asset types.

2. Click "View" on the asset type

3. Select the remark type that you want to enable a replacement option against by "Edit" for the appropriate remark type.

4. Tick the checkbox labelled "Requires replacement", then click "Save remark type" at the bottom-right corner of the page.

1. Repeat steps 1 and 2 at the beginning of this article. You should now be on the page of your chosen asset type.

3. Click on "Set advanced", then on the list labelled "Default replacement product", select the appropriate replacement from the Product Catalog. To commit the changes click "Save Variant" on the bottom right corner of the page.

4. If you go back to the asset variant you'll see the replacement product now shows up against the variant under the "Replacement" column.

With everything set up, the technician can go into the asset, choose Replace Now, select from the applicable remarks, fill out the details then tap SAVE & RESOLVE. When selected you will be able to update the following fields:
