Capital Asset Management System (CAMS) Documents

The CAMS documents allow you to track capital equipment (at or above $5,000) including adding items to inventory, transferring from one asset custodial code to another, and removing them (retiring) from active inventory status.

You can also use the CAMS documents to optionally track items below the capital equipment threshold (below $5,000).
