What are asset models

Assets models contain a name, description and asset properties. For example, you can define a laptop as a Lenovo P14s, Dell XPS 15, Mercedes A150, etc. Assets' model numbers can be easily located on the devices. By using asset models, organizations can manage their assets more effectively, track their usage and maintenance needs, and make informed decisions about when to replace or retire them.  

Vault Synapse’s Asset Models is a module where you can view, record, and manage all company assets. To view the asset models’ information, go to the Assets module and click on the Asset Models tab.  

You can search for an asset model in three different ways: 

1. Manually – Select the relevant asset model from the list.
2. Using filters – Narrow down your search by applying any of the available filters
3. Selecting asset types – Use the asset type icons above the list of assets to filter by asset types. If you cannot see an icon/description of the asset type you want, click on the arrow to the left or right until it is visible. For example, click on the laptop icon to pull out all data about laptops, or click on the cup icon to return all coffee machine results. Note that icons and asset types are customizable.

You can also use the Add New Model button from this page.  

Click on the asset model to go to the Details tab of that asset model, where you can edit the information recorded about the asset model. By clicking on the number of units, you can access the Assets tab of the asset model, where you can see a list of all assets of a particular model. You can customize the view based on your preferences or add a new asset from here.
