Key Details:
- System Category: This metric is managed within the Opportunity – General (Summary) and Inventory Snapshot sections.
- Inventory States: The calculation accounts for Available After Reservation (assets returning from current jobs) and Assets On Hold (reserved but not yet dispatched).
- Scheduling Impact: Users enter a Tentative Start Date and Tentative End Date to plan for availability and coordinate future logistics.
Use Case Example
An equipment coordinator checks the system for a generator needed in two weeks. Even though the generator is currently marked as Assets On Rent, the system confirms its Planned Availability because its current contract ends several days before the new Tentative Start Date, leaving sufficient time for its return and the required post-rental inspection.
