An asset field stores the underlying information for an asset type. You can freely define asset fields to represent information you require in your actual assets. The list of asset fields can be sorted as required. The sort order of the fields will be reflected in the assets. Even if you do not assign all the asset fields to an asset type, the sort order will still be respected. Asset fields can not be re-ordered individually for asset types.

The overview of asset fields is a list of all available fields, represented by:

• Name of the field
• Unique key in parentheses
• Description of the field

Using the up and down arrows, you can change the sort order of the fields. The option menu contains actions to edit, duplicate, and delete fields.

Note: Only additional, custom fields can be removed. However, you can rename all existing fields to fit your needs. In addition, you do not have to assign asset fields to any asset type of you do not want to use it.
