EM Equipment Attachments NOT linked to EM Location Transfer

Either unlink attachments between EM Equipment and EM Location Transfer, or Update EM Location Transfer when EM Equipment is updated with attachments. 

We usually make changes for Attachments in EM Equipment.  However, we have noticed that when we move equipment in EM Location Transfer, if equipment had attachments when it was previously moved, those same attachments are still linked to the equipment in Location Transfer on the last sequence used for that equipment.  Even if the attachments have changed, when you move the primary piece of equipment, that everything was/is attached to, those old attachments from previous seq move with it, and they reattach themselves to that equipment.  The only way we are catching this is with Notifiers that watch changes in Attached To.  Then we have to go back and update out attachments again.   It would be better if we had the option to not move attachments with equipment, or for it to look at current attachments of equipment when moving.
