IT Equipment Types
Path: Organization > Lookups > IT Equipment Type
Use this type to create broader categories of IT Equipment such as laptop, desktop, and server.
Software Types
Path: Organization > Lookups > Software
Use the Software Lookup window to record Major Version, serial numbers, number of seats allowed, and the date of purchase. Be sure to click the Update link to save a serial number line.
As interim versions are issued, such as v. 10.4, add the newest update to the Version Subtab. Be sure to click the Update link to save a new version number.
The combination of product name and version must be unique; therefore, you can have only one record for Excel version 2007, but you can also have Excel version 2003.
The Publisher field looks to the WebTMA Vendor records for selections.
