Enabling custom CI classes to be set as bulk inventory

In the Mid Tier interface, you can easily integrate custom classes with the inventory information of a CI. As an Asset admin or Asset user, automatically set the following location information of a CI by using the Search Inventory Locations dialog box. This dialog box is displayed when you set the value of the Status field of a CI to In Inventory. For more information, see Creating-and-updating-assets. By default, the Search Inventory Locations dialog box is not displayed for all the CI types.
