BMC Client Management 12.8 ... Using Managing inventory Getting started with Custom Inventory

Providing data for the new custom inventory object

The object is now added and all that remains is to provide the device specific data. Contrary to the other types of inventories this is not generated automatically but must be entered manually.

  1. Select the object in the left window pane.
  2. Click Edit > Properties .
    The Properties window appears.
  3. Enter the desired data for the new instance into the respective text boxes.
    • Country : France
    • Town : Nantes
    • Department : Accounting
    • Asset Tag : 124589
    • User ID : 2154
  4. Click OK to confirm and close the window.
    The object instance is immediately updated with the new information.

The custom inventory is now updated with all the device relevant information.

Note:

For the master device this object will always only have one instance, however, for example, a laptop can have more than one instance, if the user of the device is traveling between offices and the device can be used at any one of these locations. For this case you might want to add several instances of the object to keep track of the device.
