  • 1.  New Editable Association Type - Computer

    Posted Jul 29, 2012 04:56 AM

    Hello,

    I came across this association type : "New Editable Association Type" when creating my customized Computer view (Home > CI Management > Create a new CI > Manage View).

    I have not identified a need to have this association and would like to get rid of it. Can anyone give me some information about this association type and how to make it not show on the computer view?

    thanks in advance for your help

    Hello,

    A resource association is a link between two resources, such as between a user and a computer. The user of a computer has an association with that computer, and vice versa.

    Whenever new custom association gets creates, by default it indicates name as ‘New Editable Association Type’

    New Editable Association Type association type will be present (if created) in the:

    Settings --- All  settings – Settings ---- Service and Asset Management ---- Resource and Data Class Settings ----- Resource Associations

    Or

    Settings> All settings >Settings > Notification Server > Resource and Data Class Settings > Resource Associations

    User (which is having permission to delete) can delete only custom resource association using delete option present in the context menu\right click menu.  

    I hope that this answer will help you in resolving your query.

    Thanks,

    ~Abhishek
