Asset network and user defined object functionality is only available if the InfoAsset Manager Suite option is enabled on your licence. Please contact us for information about adding this option to your existing licence.
User Defined Asset data can be edited on either the Asset Grid or the object Property Sheet.
To view and edit all user defined asset data, use the Property Sheet.
The following describes all the data which can be used to define a user defined asset.
User Defined Asset Data
Database Table Name for user-defined fields: networktype__objectname where:
- networktype is the type of network and can take the following values:
- ams - Asset network
- cams - Collection network
- wams - Distribution network
- "__" - double underscore
- objectname - name of the asset as entered in the Database Name field of the User Defined Objects Dialog.
User defined objects are configured in the User Defined Object Grid. Please refer to the User Defined Object Grid topic for further details.
User defined objects may be assigned:
- built-in fields. This is carried out behind the scenes by InfoAsset Manager at object creation or editing time. These default fields are related to the object type and geometry. Built-in fields are listed in the table below.
- user defined fields. These user defined fields are specified by the user (this may be permissioned). See User Defined Field Grid for more information.
