Thanks Fred for you comment so i propose create another locations with asset
module it will get:

Name
Code
Keeper (employee who the responsible of the asset, i dont know if this is
common in all countries)
Asset will get a direct relation with this location.

Module allow transfer between locations, there is any account treatment
here?

Waiting for your comments.

Best regards,
