What are Accessories? Accessories in AssetIT are items that you can track in bulk and do not require unique tracking with a serial number. For example, if you have multiple keyboards, mice, or any other accessory that needs to be monitored alongside primary assets, this feature allows you to do so efficiently. While each of accessory can be assigned to a user, it can also be linked to an asset, making it easier to maintain a comprehensive overview of all related items.

Navigating the Accessories Page

On the sidebar, click on the “Accessories”.
