# Split a pre-allocated asset

You can split a pre-allocated asset to create a group that can be moved to a different stockroom.

## Before you begin

Role required: asset

## About this task

For example, a group of 100 pre-allocated computers is in Stockroom A. Split the group into two groups of 50 and move one group to Stockroom B. Allocate the computers from the two different stockrooms.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Asset** > **Portfolios** > **All Assets**.

2.  Filter the **Substate** column to show only **Pre-allocated** assets.

3.  Select the reference icon in the row containing the asset to split.

4.  Select **Split**.

5.  Enter a **Quantity to Split** and select **OK**.

    The pre-allocated asset is split into two groups and the **Quantity** field on each record indicates the number in each group.
