Asset Identifiers


Forum|alt.badge.img+1

When I create a new asset does the system automatically create a unique id number for it? In the tutorial it stated to include a unique identifier to enable searches for specific assets. In other systems there is an ID# and description, how does MaintainX handle this?

Best answer by Jesse Murphy

MaintainX automatically assigns the asset a unique ID number.

You can also add your existing Asset ID number, either in the name field on the asset form, which makes it searchable or create an additional custom field on the form

, they can also be shown/filtered.

When you open the asset in MaintainX, your browser will show an HTTPS address  with a number at the end. This is a number that is unique to that asset. I am attaching a screenshot of one of ours. This could be used as that assets unique ID in your system.
