Bulk Updating Assets

Modified on Tue, Aug 20 at 3:44 PM

SOMAX makes it easy to update multiple assets at a time with the bulk update feature. With it, you can change multiple assets' type, department, line, system, account, and location all at once - given that the new property is the same for all. Below is a chart describing each property.


PropertyDescription
TypeType of asset. Possible options can be created in the asset Lookup Lists.
Department, Line, and System (Asset Groups 1, 2, and 3)The asset groups that you have created will appear on the asset form fields, and you may use the lookup lists to choose from them. For example, your asset groups may be department, line, and area, meaning that the lookup lists for your possible departments, line, and area will show. For more help with asset groups, see Setting up Site Details.
AccountThe account that the asset is linked to.
LocationWhere this asset is located.
