Cautions
- Keep in mind that this is the latest information about an asset's location- the ASSET_LOCATIONS table does not keep history about locations. The ASSET_LOCATIONS_HISTORY table is available to view day-to-day changes in locations for asset records. Historical monthly snapshots of asset information are available in the ASSET_LOCATIONS_SNAP table.
- For more detailed information about the physical space (LOCATION_BUILDING, LOCATION_FLOOR, LOCATION_ROOM) associated with the asset, refer to the DWADMIN.BUILDINGS, DWADMIN.FLOORS and DWADMIN.ROOMS tables.
- The ASSET_LOCATIONS table is stored in the DWGL schema in the Data Warehouse.
