How to manage imported assets

The Manage Imported Assets function allows you to edit or delete individual asset items. Lists can be exported to Excel if the user has the relevant export rights configured.

My School > System  >  Assets > Manage:  Manage Imported Assets

How do I view and edit imported assets?

Assets can be viewed in two ways:

  • Grouped per Description view:

    • Double-click an entry to edit the description.

    • Select an entry and click Delete Entry to remove assets from the list.

  • Itemised view:

    • Double-click any individual asset to edit its details such as location, owner, and other fields.

Frequently asked questions

Can I export the asset list to Excel?

Yes, provided the user has the relevant export rights. Contact the system Superuser to confirm that export rights are enabled for your user profile.  If you do have Excel Export rights, you will see an Excel button on the right hand side, next to the Search bar.

What is the difference between Grouped per Description and Itemised view?

Grouped per Description groups assets by their description, making it easy to edit or delete all items of a particular type. Itemised view shows each individual asset record, allowing you to edit location, owner, and other per-item details.
