Addition of Location in Physical elements screen in Fixed Asset Module

Recently in Sage X3, we had got a requirement from the client to add the Location field in Physical elements screen in the Fixed Asset tab.

[Fixed Asset Screen – Physical element]

For this we first need to add the field in “PHYELT” table and later add the Location field in Physical element “PHY0” screen and global validate the window “OPHY”. Once the field is added in the window, still it does not get displayed in the screen when we open it.

Therefore, here then comes the concept of Classes and Representation. Further we have to add the Location field in the Class which is linked to the Physical element screen. For this we need to navigate into the Development -> Data and Parameters -> Classes. The class code is same as that of Table i.e. PHYELT. Further we scroll down to Properties tab and add the Location field to the desired location and define the order for the same and Global validate the class as shown in the below screenshot.

Now we have to add the Location field in the Representation tab i.e. navigate into Development -> Data -> Representations -> PHYELT. In this scroll down to Available Properties and add the Location field and define in block in which the field is to be displayed. In our case we will be adding the location field into “S1B1” block and define order for the field and save the changes. Once done global validate the representation screen so that changes will be reflected on the screen as shown in below screenshot.

Once all of these above steps are done, now we will check if the Location field is added on the Physical elements screen.

As you can see in the above screenshot, the Location field is now added on the Physical elements screen successfully and also data is getting saved on the screen.
