Overview

About selecting asset types

When you use the Quick Find Assets dialog box to find assets, the assets appear in the Assets table. When you use the Advanced Asset Search dialog box to find a group of assets, the assets appear in the Asset List dialog box. In either case, you can view the problems or changes associated with the assets.

Tivoli Asset Management gives you the choice of viewing the problems or changes for a single asset or for all of the assets. You can make this choice in the View Type dialog box.

Note: For more detailed information on viewing the problems and changes associated with assets, see Viewing Associated Problems and Viewing Associated Changes.
