Asset detail page

Clicking a row in the inventory opens a device's detail page. It is split into six tabs; status and asset tag stay in the page header whichever tab you are on. The active tab is part of the address — a link therefore takes you back exactly where you were.

#The six tabs

#Overview

The fields you need most often at a glance: current assignment, location, manufacturer and model, serial number and warranty expiry.

#Fields

The complete field list in two columns — from name and device type through purchase date and price to notes and creation time. Custom fields you defined for a device type in Catalog & models appear here automatically on the matching devices.

#Assignment

This is where you change who has the device and where it sits.

  • Assigned to — search across everyone in the tenant. The selected person is linked; the ✕ clears the assignment
  • Location — hierarchical selection along building › floor › room
  • Purchase date — when it was acquired
  • Assigned since — derived from the audit log and not editable

Below the form, Recent assignments lists the last five changes. Without the assets:write permission you see the view read-only, with a note saying so.

#Lifecycle

A chronological timeline of everything that happened to this device, merged server-side from two sources: audit entries (creation, change, status change, assignment, deletion) and any linked Movements. The 100 most recent entries are shown, each with an icon, the person who triggered it, a relative timestamp and a short description.

#Notes

Free text on the single device — for everything that fits no field.

  • Creating is open to anyone with access to the device, up to 4,000 characters
  • Editing and deleting is limited to the author and administration
  • Pinning lifts a note to the top of the list and marks it in Uslimato green

#Audit log

The 50 most recent audit entries for this device, with timestamp, the person who triggered it (*System* for automated operations), the action and the fields that changed. The tab only appears for administration; the full history across all objects lives in the Audit log.

#Full page or side panel

How a click in the list behaves is your own choice, under Settings › App:

  • Full page (default) — the click opens the dedicated page. The back button restores the list, its filters and the scroll position
  • Side panel — the click opens a panel over the list. Handy when comparing several devices without losing context

Either way: Ctrl or Cmd click, Shift click and middle click open in a new tab, Enter and Space activate the focused row. On touch devices you always navigate directly.

#Hover preview

Rest on a row for two seconds and a compact preview card appears with a thumbnail, asset tag, status, manufacturer and model, assigned person, location path and serial number.

The card is display only — click the row to open the device. Moving the pointer away, Escape, scrolling or switching tab closes it immediately. It only appears on devices with real hover capability, so never on touch. It can be turned on and off under Settings › App too.

#Human-readable identifiers

Everywhere something is presented for people — page header, breadcrumb, browser title, copy button, notification — Uslimato uses the readable identifier rather than the technical one.

ObjectIdentifierExample
AssetAsset tagAST-00000042
TicketTicket numberTKT-000013
MovementMovement numberMOV-000007

How these numbers are built, and what happens when a range fills up, is covered in Number ranges.
