Steps
to Process Scanner DataFrom within the Process Scanner Data option, select the Options menu and then Import Scanner Data.
At the Select Scanner File screen, enter or select the correct path (drive and folders) and file name for the file to be imported in the File Name field, and then click Open.
Note: The file to be imported must be formatted with either carriage returns or commas as the delimiter. If the Site ID, Building ID, or Room ID for an asset included in the scanner data file is more than 10 characters long, or if the Asset Tag is more than 20 characters long, an error message will appear stating the asset will be skipped (not imported for comparison); click OK to continue.
The specified scanner data file will be imported and the system will compare each asset in the Asset File Maintenance option to the assets that were scanned; any assets that are new or missing, or have location or disposal status changes, are assigned a corresponding Variance Type.
