Hi,

Was just wondering what the best practice is when it comes to creating Products to be assigned to Assets.

In particular, I am referring to when a Product may have the same name, but different part numbers.

For example, we have Lenovo T520 laptops, but we have purchased different variations which have different part numbers.

It seem's pointless using the part number as the unique identifier in the name field, as it has a field of its own. But there doesn't seem anywhere logical to record that it is a model T520 other than the Comments field. Also, what if we wanted to run a report on that particular model of laptop, regardless of which part number it is?

 

Regards,

Paul.
