save Uses standard properties Saves the asset item to the database Sets any properties set by the database that were not in the original object, usually ID (if no match to current ID or if ID was undef). import_file Parses a csv file. Sets $self->{import_entries} to an arrayref where each member is an arrayref of fields. It is up to the workflow script to handle these entries. Header information is set to $self->{import_header}. get Gets a fixed asset, sets all standard properties. The id property must be set. search Searches for asset_items matching criteria. Sets $self->{search_results} to the result. Search criteria set by the following properties: * id * asset_class * description * tag * purchase_date * purchase_value * usable_life * salvage_value * start_depreciation * warehouse_id * department_id * invoice_id * asset_account_id * dep_account_id Tag and description are partial matches. All other matches are exact. Undef matches all values. save_note Saves a note. Uses the following properties: * id * subject * note get_metadata Sets the following: * asset_classes: List of all asset classes * locations: List of all warehouses/locations * deprtments: List of all departments * asset_accounts: List of all asset accounts * dep_accounts: List of all depreciation accounts * exp_accounts: List of all expense accounts get_next_tag Returns next tag number Sets $self->{tag} to that value. import_asset Uses standard properties.
