Asset Layouts

Asset layouts are the templates that define the fields on your asset records. This guide walks through creating, configuring, and managing layouts.

Creating a Layout

1. Navigate to Admin → Layouts (requires SUPER_ADMIN role)
2. Click New Layout
3. Enter a name (e.g. "Server", "Workstation", "Software License")
4. Click Create

The layout is now available to all tenants in the asset creation picker.

Adding Fields

With the layout open in the builder:

1. Click Add Field
2. Choose a field type from the dropdown (see Field Types)
3. Enter a label (the name shown on the asset form)
4. Configure field-specific options (see below)
5. Click Save

Repeat for each field you want on the layout.

Configuring Field Options

For all fields

For DATE and DATETIME fields

For DROPDOWN fields

For MULTISELECT fields

Reordering Fields

Drag any field by its handle to change its position in the layout. The order in the builder matches the order shown on asset forms and detail pages.

Sidebar Sections

Fields can be grouped into named sidebar sections with custom positioning. This is useful for long layouts where related fields should be visually grouped.

Renaming a Layout

From the layout list:

1. Click the ⋯ menu next to the layout
2. Select Rename
3. Enter the new name and confirm

Existing assets are not affected — they continue to reference the layout by ID, and the new name appears on their detail pages immediately.

Archiving a Layout

Archiving hides the layout from the asset creation picker while preserving all existing asset records.

1. Click the ⋯ menu next to the layout
2. Select Archive
3. If assets exist using this layout, a warning is shown. Confirm to proceed.

Archived layouts are viewable from the Archived tab. Existing assets that reference an archived layout remain fully accessible.
