Telecoms Asset Template

[Awalker]

Good morning, I am in the process of uploading my companys assets into application, can you let me know if it is possible to add fields into the templates we download, I have uploaded my telecoms, and noticed it does not give the option to add the following;

Serial Number

Model

These are rather fundamental to track asset, apologies if this is already mentioned but could not find another thread.

Hi @Awalker

Thanks for the post.  The template you downloaded contains all of the fields that are currently available to upload to for the telecoms asset type so it is not currently possible to add any further fields as you mention.  Would you be able give some examples of the types of telecoms assets you are trying to upload that require the serial number and model to be stored and we can then look to get this considered for a future change request?

Kind Regards,

Dave.

Hi @David Hall

 

I am uploading all telephones, and fax machines (Yes we still have a few of these).

 

I have the column for manufacturer, but it does not have the two mentioned in the initial post which seems odd as these are key things you would use to track an asset.

Hi @Awalker

Thanks for your post.  We process the introduction of new fields to the asset classes on a regular cycle, usually quarterly.  I will make sure that your requested fields are added to the next batch to be processed.

Regards,

James

Hi @James Ainsworth

 

Can you confirm when the next release will be please?

[James Ainsworth]

Hi @awalker

We are finalizing our release cycle for the next release, so we should see this soon.  The additional fields for the assets are still being worked on by our development team, so they will not be in this release, but they should come soon after.

Regards,

James

hi @James Ainsworth, Do you have any further updates on this request?

[James Ainsworth]

Hi @Awalker

I'm sorry about the delays.  This is still with development.  I will see if I can get an update on the progress for you.

HI @James Ainsworth, Any update on this at all??

[James Ainsworth]

HI @Awalker

I'm afraid it is still in our development queue.   It is still high on the list for starting work on.  I will let you know once work has started.

Regards,

James

Hi @Awalker

I just wanted to let you know that we have completed some work to include some additional attributes for the asset types, including the serial number and model under telecoms as you required.  Below is a list of the latest asset attributes.  These will be available in a Service Manager update over the next week or two.  Keep an eye open for this in the release notes.

Regards,

James
