As I understand you want to do data collection only on live assets, and dont want to consider the stale assets.
There is no straight forward solution for removing stale asset from asset system. But to solve your use case following is the solution -
- Create a tag in Tags workspace
- Create a reconsiliation rule - If asset already present in asset system then tag that asset
- Create a reconsiliation rule - if asset new to asset system then tag that asset
- Run Asset Import with these two rules added
- Now you can create a group say "Live Assets" by specifying above created tag in filter and use this group for data collection and evalutation
- Or you can remove asset which does not have above tag (stale asset) and do evalution on remaining assets
Drawback of this solution is, you need to create a new tag everytime when you want to remove stale assets from your system.
