AM94.1 - Attribute Interface Adjustment

**Form Purpose
Use Attribute Interface Adjustment (AM94.1) to view and edit non-Lawson
attribute records imported into the Asset Attribute Interface file
(AMASTMXCNV) (UNIX/Windows) or (DBAMMCV) (iSeries) before interfacing them to
the Lawson Asset Management application.

You can convert attributes when you add new assets or attach attributes to
already converted assets. The asset, item, and book records with which the
attributes are associated must be converted before or concurrently with the
attribute records.

This program is not the preferred method for adding attributes to assets that
have not been entered through the conversion process.
