Barcode Solution: Where is the Resource Types list being populated from?

  • 1.  Barcode Solution: Where is the Resource Types list being populated from?

    Posted Jan 27, 2012 02:31 PM

    I go into the "Select Data Classes and Associations" field in the Sycronization Profiles and I am unable to see any new customized "Resource Type".

    Where is the "Asset Types" folder grabbing these assets from? I need to add my customized "Resource Type" into this list and I have no idea where it is grabbing the "Asset Types" from?

    Just so I am understood correctly, I go to:

     

    - Go to Home> Service and Asset Management> Barcode.

    - Select the Synchronization Profile that needs to be edited.

    - Click on the profile's Data Classes and Associations tab. Click on the Select button.

    - You will then need to select a resource type in one the folders listed, This does not have the custom "Resource Type" I have created for example "Tablet"

    I see all the "Out Of Box" Resource Types but none of my customized ones.

    To make the custom resource appear in the Select Data Classes and Associations dialog box, in the Resource Types list, the Base Resource Type of the custom resource must be Asset, and not Resource, Item, or others.

    To change the Base Resource Type of a custom resource type, click Resource. In the Select a Resource Type dialog box, click Asset, and then click OK.
