Define an Asset Group

CA APM lets you add information to the repository about a group of assets that share common information so that you can manage the assets as a group throughout their lifecycle. You can divide (subgroup) the asset group into individual assets later so that you can specify and track unique information for the individual assets.

To define an asset group

1. Click Asset, New Asset.
2. Enter the asset information.
3. In the Quantity field, enter the total number of assets in the group. You enter a value greater than one for an asset group.
4. Associate the asset group with other objects such as contacts, organizations, and companies. This approach enables specific data access to roles or users when you implement multi-tenancy.
5. Click Save.

   The asset group is defined.
