Alert! For NEW shipments of Devices, these devices will be added to your account and automatically paired to an Asset with the Asset Name & ID listed as the ESN of the Tag for you through a process we call "Autobirth" so all you should have to do is rename the assets from your List or Map view (See "How to Edit Assets" article). But sometimes you may need to create a new asset, this article will walk you through that asset.

Tip! We Recommend the Asset Name be something that is easy for everyone to understand. Example: if a truck says 104 on the side, we recommend making the name something like "Truck 104"

Tip! Asset ID can be a more complex or a number that is not as easily identifiable. Something like an Internal ID, VIN, Coded ID, etc. We do see some people choose to use the ESN as the Asset ID which you can also do.

Asset Description can be used for what you want it to be. We see people track small notes or perhaps an install date here.

If you want you can add the Fuel Type, otherwise leave this untouched.\
Asset Owner should also be your company's name.
