Creating Your First Components

Components in AssetIT are individual items that make up a larger asset. Examples include hardware components like Hard Disk Drives (HDDs), RAM, processors, or any other parts that are integral to an asset’s functionality. Unlike licenses or accessories, components are directly linked to physical assets rather than users.

Navigating the Components Page

On the sidebar, click on the “Components”.

  • (3) List Overview: The main area displays a list of all components currently in the system, giving you a quick overview and easy access to manage these items.
