Importing Asset ID for Labels

Hi ​@BTurton 5176341 mhd - To clarify, are you referring to printing asset labels in bulk for assets that do not yet exist in the system, or for assets that are already present? Currently, there isn't a way to import a CSV file to automatically generate labels for assets that haven't been added to the system yet. Assets need to be added first—either through MDM or by importing a spreadsheet—and each asset must have an asset tag assigned before labels can be printed in bulk.

The "Location with Room" value combines the asset’s location and room into one string. For example, in the label below, this device is located at “iiQ Elementary School” in room “01.”

Please let me know if you need further clarification or assistance.

Thanks!

Best,

Ashley

Hi Ashley,

These assets are already present in iiQ! But we have a number of devices that need to have new asset tags printed and it seems the only way to print the labels is by searching for each device manually and selecting a batch print. What would be helpful would be to take the data that we are already collecting for device movement and assignment and pull in all those devices into a batch label file with the same style of label.

Thanks,

Ben

Hi Ashley,

This seems like it could make the process easier for sure. Is there a way to import a CSV with the asset IDs that we want to print for? This new view looked as though there would still be a need to type each asset in individually.

Thanks!

You shouldn’t have to type each asset individually. There isn't an "import" option; instead, you can select and copy all the Asset IDs from a spreadsheet and paste them into a new view. After that, you can bulk print the specific asset labels. 

The best approach is shown in ​@AHolley_iiQ  video.
