The New Entrant option may be hidden from the Objects section on the search page. To show it, click the gear icon (icon-gear) in the top-left corner of the search page and change the New Entrant setting to Visible. Refer to Show Hidden Sections for more information.

3.Click the Add Asset (icon-add) icon in the search results for new entrants.

Because the device you are creating does not have a group, designation, or version, its Asset Identification Key will be two periods and a numeral. When the device is assigned to a version, its Asset Identification Key will update accordingly.

The Type field for the new device indicates New Entrant by default. This field can be changed, but because you would be assigning it to a version, the device would no longer constitute a new entrant.

5.Expand the Technical Characteristics and Commercial Characteristics tabs and enter any relevant details. Refer to device details for more information.

6.Click Save and Close.

The new device is now shown on the Maintenance search page when New Entrant is selected under Objects.
