These properties are predetermined by the asset type. Key properties
are in boldface type and are marked with an asterisk (*). Values for
key instance properties are mandatory. The values that you specify
must be unique to identify the asset. Key properties are displayed
in the order of their definitions. Instance properties that are mandatory
are also marked with an asterisk (*). For those properties, you must
specify a value, but you can modify the value after saving it.

asset, or choose Cancel to return
to the main
Type Instance View page without saving any changes.
