Within Integrity, you can look at assets by physical location, and drill-down to a particular area or asset. With inventory items, you can also identify and evaluate systems and their individual components.

An inventory item is an asset or component of an asset, such as an installed software product or a hardware component. The PAS Inventory Items asset model uses information from the other asset models and assets to build a set of inventory items in Integrity. The administrator installs and configures the PAS Inventory Items asset model.

The inventory items for the asset inventory are created in a way to ensure that both proprietary and non-proprietary inventory items can be displayed in a single view. In most cases, an inventory item has a model number, serial number, or version number that helps identify the item. In a few rare cases, an inventory item relies on other properties to identify the component or asset.

In some cases, you may want to manually create inventory items and add inventory information for assets that are not automatically identified through data collection. The PAS Manual Inventory asset model allows you to extend Integrity so you can manually add inventory items. You can also use the Integrity workflow case management to define the work processes for reviewing and approving manually created inventory items. For more information, see the PAS Manual Inventory Implementation Guide.
