Project details

A project groups assets for display in summary and details page views. A "Project details" page shows the details for a particular project in the inventory database.

When you create a new project, you provide a name and description, and parent project if appropriate.

You can use the “Project details” page to complete the following tasks:
  • See the attributes of a specific project.
  • Perform actions on the asset.
  • See other assets that are related to the current asset.
  • See measurements for the assets of a project.

This page contains sections that help you with the following tasks.
