Add Asset Types

Asset Types are used to group similar assets together. Grouping assets by type becomes useful when running reports or filtering lists in Assetminder. Asset types and asset subtypes have a parent child relationship. Whereas asset types sit at the top of the asset type hierarchy, asset subtypes are considered child types of the parent. For example:

• Bus
  • Minibus
  • Low floor bus
  • Double decker bus
  • School bus

1. To create an asset type, click the Administrator Settings icon on the home screen

2. Click Assets

3. Click Asset Types

4. Select New Asset Type

5. Add a name for the new asset type. In this example, we have called the new asset type "Low Loaders"

6. Click Save when done. 

7. Repeat the process for all parent asset types.
