Jobs and Assets

Assets is an optional feature that allows you to maintain a database of customer owned assets and information associated with them.

You can add an asset to a job using either the asset ID, the asset third party ID, or the asset name, like so:

<asset_id>1234</asset_id>
<asset_third_party_id>8336</asset_third_party_id>
<asset>
<name>St James Rose Garden</name>
</asset>

Assets also include the ability to record the asset's physical location in vWork. You may want to use the asset address for a step address in the job. To do so, add the asset to the job and at the same time let us know which step we should add the asset address to, like so:

<step>
    <name>Pick up goods</name>
    <use_asset_location>true</use_asset_location>
</step>
