Fixed Asset Explosions in X3

The asset explosion function can be utilized to breakout assets that have
quantities associated with them. It can be used in instances whereby there is a
partial sale, disposal or a portion of the asset needs to be transferred.

Step 1: Assigning a quantity to a Fixed Asset

Go to Fixed Assets/ Fixed Assets

On the Acquisition tab where the respective invoices are detailed the user can
define the quantity that corresponds to the asset. In this instance there are
six office chairs each valued at $1,000.00

Define the quantity here.
