IT Subtypes

IT asset subtypes differ from asset subtypes in where they are defined and how they are used:

  • Asset subtypes are created within PeopleSoft Asset Management and describe assets recorded in the asset repository.

  • IT asset subtypes are created within PeopleSoft IT Asset Management and are used to compare and reconcile the IT assets reported by the third-party inventory application with the assets stored in the asset repository.

Note:

The IT asset subtypes that you define in PeopleSoft IT Asset Management must match the asset subtypes defined within PeopleSoft Asset Management.
