The Consumption Limit tab in the Assets screen allows you to specify a limit of how many inventory items an asset should consume in a set number of days.

You can set PMXAlerts to warn you when an asset exceeds its limit. See either:

•Chapter 13: PMXAlerts Module, Part A: PMXAlerts - Previous Version, PMXAlerts Settings
•Chapter 15: PMXpert Automation Service, Add, Edit and Delete Automation Items

The Consumption Limit Report will show you which assets have exceeded their inventory limits.
