Asset details can be edited from an alarm by selecting the pencil icon next to Asset Identification on the Details tab of an alarm. This will open the Asset Details tab where the details of the asset can be modified. 

From Assets

Details of an Asset can be modified in the Details tab of the Asset. 

After an edit

After an asset is edited, if the asset has any alarms, the alarms will be updated to the new details. This process may take a minute. 

Creating Assets

Before creating a new asset, check to make sure it doesn’t already exist. Duplicate assets are not allowed. An asset is considered a duplicate if the name, type, and location match. You will be prevented from creating a duplicate asset.

Use Components to clarify that an alarm is for a part that is contained within a larger piece of equipment. See the KB article, What is a Component? for more information.
