Asset List

The asset list page is a table. The table can be sorted by columns and filtered using the Search
input field. Filtering is also possible by basic and additional fields, as well as existing relationships. You can create an object manually using the Create manual object
button. If necessary, you can customize the displayed fields in the asset table using the dropdown list.

If the asset was manually created (indicated by the Custom Object

Relations
This section shows information about the asset’s relations to other assets. The panel is displayed only if a relation has been configured in the Inventory

The Relations
section is only available for configurations that use the updated calculation algorithm.
