The Device Field

When creating and editing requests you can set the Device field.

System behavior

The Device field displays values in the following format: "object kind: device name; inventory number, asset number, serial number".
When the list is expanded, the field shows devices assigned to the current requester (located under him/her in the objects tree) and the asset the requester is responsible for. When you search the list, you will also see the devices that are visible to a signed in user in the objects tree.
Computer components and Computer Set type objects are not shown.
The text entered in the field will be searched for in object kind, name, path, inventory, serial, and asset number.
The values shown are sorted by their path in the tree, by object kind, and by object name.

Custom functions for device selection

If you wish to change the method of searching, ordering, and displaying of values in the device field, add the ftDeviceSearch_Custom2 table function to the database.
If the ftDeviceSearch_Custom2 function is defined in the database, it will be used for the device menu instead of the default function ftDeviceSearch.
The ftDeviceSearch_Custom2 function has the same inputs and outputs as the existing ftDeviceSearch function.
