Custom Fields on Assets (a Weekly Open Office Hours Session)

This session of the Redlist Weekly Office Hours explores how to create and manage custom fields on assets to capture specific, relevant data for different types of equipment. Users learn how to leverage both hardcoded and custom fields—such as usage, criticality, cost, and file uploads—to improve asset tracking and categorization. The session also demonstrates how to assign custom fields to specific asset types, set required fields, and create dropdown or multi-select options to standardize data entry and prevent errors. These tools enable users to build richer, more accurate asset records that support better reporting and decision-making.
