1. Select Microsoft Dynamics GP > Tools > Setup > Service Management > Lookup Setup > Equipment > Equipment Types.
2. Complete the following fields, as necessary.
   • Equipment Type
     Create a name for the equipment type.
   • Equipment Model Number, Manufacturer ID
     You may want to set up equipment types based on the model or manufacturer; if not, these fields are not required.
   • System, Major, Sub 1 - Sub 4
     These fields are used when assigning maintenance tasks to pieces of equipment. Complete these fields if all pieces of equipment belonging to this type share the same components. This information is for reference and sorting only and does not affect the individual tasks making up the task list. See About System, Major, Sub 1-4.
   • Task List ID
     Assign task codes and task lists to be performed on this equipment type. Whenever the equipment type is assigned to a piece of equipment covered by a maintenance contract, the maintenance tasks and task lists go with the equipment record. You can change which tasks are assigned to the equipment type by zooming on the Task List ID field. If tasks change on the master equipment type, however, these changes do not affect equipment types already assigned to a maintenance contract. Similarly, task changes made to equipment at the maintenance contract level are not reflected in the master equipment record.
