Creating Hierarchical Assets from Product Bundles (End User)

You can generate a hierarchical asset from a product bundle. A product bundle is a group of products offered as a package. For more information about hierarchical assets, see Hierarchical Assets.

NOTE:  To successfully generate a hierarchical asset, the product bundle must include only parent and child products (for example, a laptop computer that includes a CD-ROM drive). The product bundle cannot include grandchild products (for example, an airplane that includes an engine that includes a fuel tank).

This task is a step in Process of Managing Assets.

To create a hierarchical asset from a product bundle

1. Navigate to the Assets screen, then the List view.
2. Create a new asset record, select a product bundle in the Product field, and complete the other fields as appropriate.
3. Drill down on the Asset number (#) field for the asset, and click the Components view tab.

   The asset components for the child products in the product bundle appear in the Components view.
