Transport Equipment Masterfile

The Transport Equipment Masterfile can be used to create and update Transport Equipment Types. These Transport Equipment Types can then be populated in the Equipment Types (formerly Transport Types) combo boxes, such as on the Import Job Registration screen. The Transport Equipment Types can have restrictions set so some Transport Equipment Types can only be selected on certain Jobs. The Transport Equipment Types cannot be deleted, but they can be deactivated by unchecking the Active column.
