Hello,
I'm trying to figure out the correct approach for "extending" SCCD (TAMIT) deployed
assets in order to add a support for custom device types, such as TELCO
equipment.
From what I understood, the following applications are provided by SCCD
in order to work with deployed assets (HW):
- Computers
- Network devices
- Printers
TELCO equipment we're going to integrate doesn't "fit well" into
aplications provided by SCCD for the following reasons:
1. We need a support of deployed assets hierarchy, such as
Cabinet->Subrack->Board.
This is not supported by "Network Devices" application, but
is supported by "Computers" applications
2. We have to have additional attributes for deployed assets, which
depends on equipment type. For example, different attributes for
Cabinets, Subracks, Boards etc
3. The information presented in DPA application has to reflect specific equipment
attributes, columns for lists, etc.
Please suggest direction(s) to follow in order to fulfill such requirement
Thank you
Why not just use assets / classifications it supports what you describe below

Deployed assets (DPA) have to be used integration - this is a product design. Reconciliation module is used in order to find differences between DPA and authorized assets.
