Adding and Editing Assets

This article explains how to add and edit assets to a site (see this article on how to add and edit sites, and this article for information about the different input labels).

Adding an Asset​

There are two ways to add, edit, and view an asset:

On the Site​

Go to Sites and select the Show Assets button on the site where the asset(s) are to be set up, edited, or viewed.

Scroll down and click on the Add a new asset button.

On the Asset Menu​

Navigate within the Sites menu to the Asset section and click on the Add a new asset button displayed at the top.

Adding a New Asset​

There are a number of fields you can complete. The mandatory fields are:

  • Site (automatically selected when you add an asset to a site)
  • Asset Type (predefined in account settings)
  • Name of the asset
  • Location
  • Company
  • Asset ID

Cable asset types can be connected between two assets under Location by selecting the available assets or manually specifying the latitude and longitude (when no asset is selected).

The system allows the ability to group milestones according to different types of assets/components/sub-assemblies. The Milestones field shows all the assigned milestone mappings specific to that asset type. These milestones are defined in the Account Settings section, see here.

Exporting Assets​

  1. Select assets.
  2. Click the Download button at the top right to export asset information in CSV format for easy editing.
  3. You will receive a notification when the file is ready to download.

Adding Asset Custody​

If you would like to track who is responsible for an asset on a daily basis, you can enable Asset Custody.

Enabling Asset Custody Permission​

Editing Asset Custody​

Once enabled, you can edit an asset to assign custody.

Once all fields are completed, click Save to add the asset to your site.
The user can track the generated milestones in the Dashboard and edit them within the asset window.

note

When you edit an asset, you can add additional information such as sub-assemblies and components.

Power Curve​

You can also add a power curve to an asset type. See Adding and Editing a Power Curve in Assets for detailed instructions.

You must have all assets set up before applying sequences to them.
