Creating Your First Accessories
- Emily @ DevSamurai
What are Accessories? Accessories in AssetIT are items that you can track in bulk and do not require unique tracking with a serial number.

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.
