Retiring locations

If a location is not longer in use, you can retire it. When you retire a location, you must complete disposition information for audit purposes.

About this task

You manually can remove the associations between the retired location and people, assets, and organizations, or you can specify that associations are removed when the retire action is approved. The location is updated so that the carbon emission value is 0 if the entire location is retired. When a floor is retired, the carbon emission value is recalculated when the next carbon footprint calculator runs. You can retire multiple locations at one time by completing a Disposition Request from the Requests tab.

Procedure

  1. In the portfolio, find and open the location that you are retiring.
  2. Select the Retire action.
  3. Complete the details on the disposition form.
    Select the Auto Cleanup options if you want the associations between the locations and assets, people, and organizations to be removed automatically.
  4. Click Create.

What to do next

If you did not select the Auto Cleanup options, the retired location, including floors and spaces, remains associated to any assigned assets, people, and organizations. You must manually remove these associations.
