An Equipment type provides a convenient way to define cause codes, classifications, and effects mappings, known as relationship matrices, that are relevant to several locations.
Tip: It is good practice to create equipment types in a single Applications folder under the System Configuration folder. This makes it easier to edit and maintain equipment types.
To create an Equipment types folder
-
In Studio, under System Configuration, create an Applications folder and rename it to Equipment Types.

-
