Property Inventory (UPPM 20.50)
An item is added to the University’s inventory record if it meets the criteria for capital equipment as defined by the State of Washington and interpreted by WSU Property Inventory. Items tracked in the University Property Inventory System are listed in Workday as “Capital (depreciable capital asset).”
University-inventoried items have the following characteristics:
- Cost is $5,000 or more
- Life expectancy exceeds one year
- Non-consumable; the item does not change form with use
In addition, items that are designated as trackable or small and attractive assets from a University-wide perspective must be inventoried in Workday. Such small and attractive assets are inventoried, regardless of cost, and include:
- Weapons, e.g., firearms, weapons, signal guns, or related accessories
- Laptop, notebook, and tablet computers
- Equipment or vehicles that require a license, e.g., drones, motor vehicles, vessels, trailers, aircraft, farm equipment, and heavy machinery (see UPPM 70.40)
The following items are not usually inventoried in Workday:
- Items that are part of a building or structure or are permanently installed in a building and support the operation of the building
- Parts of another capitalized item
- Items that do not meet the University inventory criteria (see UPPM 20.50, Section 3.1)
