Asset Type - Default Attribute Values

Set up Default Asset Attribute Values

It's possible to set up default asset attribute values for each attribute assigned to an asset type. Only attribute types that are assigned to an asset type will be visible under the tab 'Attribute values' in the 'Asset type defaults' form. See screenshot 01.

For every newly created asset, the default attribute values will be set automatically.

Important remarks about the feature:

• For string attribute types, only values that are already set up on 'Attribute type values', might be used.
• On the 'Asset types' page, when deselecting an attribute under the 'Attribute types' tab, a validation is performed that checks if there is a value set for the given attribute in the 'Asset type defaults' page. If the value is set, a warning is displayed after deselecting that the attribute had a value set.
• Before the first setup of default values, you should refresh the asset type default attribute values using Update default attributes button in the 'Asset type defaults' form.

Copy asset type default values

Asset type default values can be copied from one asset type default to another by selecting the Copy setup button with the 'Copy default attribute values' checkbox set to 'Yes'. See screenshot 02.
