In a DPAS system, a cross-field validation for an Issue transaction requires which of the following?

• A. Asset must be on hold.
• B. Asset must be checked out to a different organization.
• C. Asset must be at a off-site facility.
• D. Asset must be On-hand and location must belong to issuing organization.

Answer: (D)

Cross-field validation for an Issue transaction ensures the asset is actually in the issuing organization’s custody and available to issue. The asset must be On-hand, meaning there is inventory available in the asset’s record, and the asset’s location must belong to the issuing organization, so the issuing entity has control and accountability. This combination guarantees you’re not issuing something that isn’t in your organization’s possession or isn’t in inventory. If an asset were on hold or checked out to another organization, or located at a site not owned by the issuing organization, the cross-field rule would not be satisfied.
