Bulk Asset Status Changes with Notes

A change note may be added when uploading assets to Calem in the coming release of R2024a.

• A new field is added to the asset table as a virtual field or place holder.
• The field name is "scn_vf" with label "Status-Note".
• Change notes can be populated in this field in your excel files for changes to assets for one of the following fields:
  • Status, Location, Parent, or Position
• Calem will add the change notes as comments to assets when one of the fields above is changed for an upload row.
• Otherwise, the change notes are ignored by Calem. For instance, 
  • If an asset dose not exist and is created, the change note is ignored. 
  • If an asset is changed, but none of the fields above is changed, the change note is ignored.
