                     parameters that you can use to quickly
                     add assets with minimal keying. Using a
                     template lets you default many data
                     items associated with a new asset.

                     You can use an asset template to
                     process quick asset additions in AM20.1
                     (Quick Addition) and to create assets
                     and asset books from Accounts Payable
                     and Activity Management interface
                     information. Asset templates are
                     required if you define new assets as a
                     result of transactions interfaced from
                     the Lawson Purchase Order or Accounts
                     Payable systems.

                     company.
