FAQ

Can I create an asset without selecting an address?

For fixed assets, no. The address field is required. For moving assets, there is no address field, so this does not apply.

Where else can I create an asset?

You can also create an asset from the Asset name dropdown on the event creation form. Click Add new asset at the bottom of the dropdown.
