Complete the following fields:

  • Name.
  • Asset Type.
  • Code Prefix using 3–6 letters or numbers.
  • Status.
  • Owner Type.
  • Condition Rating.

The Code Prefix is the 3–6 letter or number abbreviation used at the beginning of the asset’s unique code. For example, entering EXC could create the code EXC-0001. SiteConnect combines the prefix with the asset’s ID automatically. You cannot edit the full code directly, but you can change the prefix if the asset needs a different code. 

4. Add optional information 

Where relevant, add the site, Asset Subtype, vendor, identifiers, safety information, lifecycle dates, photos and supporting files. You can update these details later.

5. Save the asset 

Review the information, then select Save.

Result 

The asset appears in the Asset Register with its own unique code and QR code.

Next recommended step

If you did not select a site during setup, link the asset to the site where it is used.
