Find the equipment you want to retire. See Equipment Search.
Right-click on the piece of equipment you want to retire. This displays a message to verify that you want to retire the selected equipment.
Click Yes to set the equipment's status to Retired.
Note:
Equipment with a status of Retired is not displayed on the Equipment Search Results window unless the View Retired check box is selected.
