Paul Foxworthy commented on OFBIZ-5985:
---------------------------------------

Hi Christian,

I think the reason you're seeing a type and not one fixed asset is that MRP 
will schedule and assign assets according to current requirements and 
priorities. Change the jobs to be done, and a different asset might be assigned 
to a particular WorkEffort.

I would argue your suggestion should not replace the current behaviour, and 
manually assigning a fixed asset to one WorkEffort defeats the purpose of MRP.

If you are having problems here, perhaps your fixed asset types are too broad. 
If it seems strange to have a list of types each having exactly one fixed 
asset, remember that tomorrow you could add a second asset of a type, re-run 
MRP, and jobs would automatically be spread between the two. If your 
WorkEfforts talk about a specific fixed asset, you will need to alter them when 
you get new equipment.

Hope that helps.

> fixedAssetTypeId instead of fixedAssetId  I've found no code using the entity 
> other than the one that allows the entity data to be manipulated.  Therefore,
