Tracking Assets 9xxxxx (Virtual) Numbers Inventory Services The University of Texas at Austin

9XXXXX (Virtual) Numbers  Why are there inventory numbers on my NVP report beginning with ‘9’ that are not affixed to my equipment?  Due to year-end processing requirements, Inventory Services must clear out the DEFINE NU1 screen at the end of the fiscal year and assign virtual numbers for tracking and reporting purposes  Do I need to find these items?  Yes. Part of the certification requirement is to work with Inventory Services to get any item with virtual numbers converted to university barcode tags that can be scanned

“No Tag” Indicator  9xxxxx numbers are also used for items that cannot be tagged because tagging would destroy the item, interfere with the performance of the item, or the item is “intangible”  These numbers should be marked with the “No Tag” indicator on screen 2 of NV1

Allowable “No Tag” Class Codes
