2. Fill out the details in the modal:
Input the name of the new Asset category you want to create in the designated field.
3. Save your entry:
Once you've filled out the necessary details, click on the 'Save' or 'Create' button to finalise and create your new Asset category.
Editing an Existing Asset Category
To edit the name of an existing Asset category or archive it, follow these steps:
1. Find the asset category you want to edit:
Scroll through your list of categories until you find the one you want to edit. If the list is long, use 'Search' function to help you find it more easily.
2. Edit the asset category name or archive it:
Click an item to show the item in a modal. Here, you can change the name of the category. Usually, there will be a text field with the current name in it that you can directly edit. To archive the category, there should be an 'Archive' button or checkbox. Archiving usually means that the category will not be deleted but will no longer actively appear in your lists.
3. Save your changes:
After making your changes, don't forget to save them. Look for a 'Save' or 'Update' button, usually near the bottom of the form.
