O&I Equipment List
There is a button for CPU's (cartons, quantities estimated, and so forth.) That is only one part of our business. We would like a button for "Equipment List" which had things like Totes, Library Carts, 4-wheelers etc. Things we send on an O&I move. One column for what was sent, a column for "returned" and a column for "remaining on site" to help manage our equipment. Would allow for reports to show what was still on job site so we knew where to hunt things down, how much to bill for "rented" equipment and so forth.

Work is continuing in this area, with release 2016 r20 you will be able to dispatch by quantity for equipment like library carts, 4-wheelers, etc…
The next step will be changes to Enter Actuals so that you can start logging quantities returned.

In release 2016 r11 you will see new functionality that allows you to indicate equipment needs on local services. This is the first part of a phased in approach to getting O&I functionality. The functionality to track out/in will come later.

We just finished this discussion. Is this a custom feature?

You can actually add these items to your material list. It isn't perfect, but it certainly helps.

If you scroll down in the CPU Quantities list, ours has all of the categories you are talking about. 4 Wheel dollies, speed packs, box dollies, panel carts, etc... If yours doesn't scroll down past the cartons, then this must be something MS did to customize for us and I'm sure they will for you.
