Activating or inactivating an asset group
This activity allows you to activate or inactivate an asset group. An asset group is inactivated if it is no longer in use. You can activate an “Inactive” asset group if it does not have an inactive parent group. You can also inactivate an “Active” asset group if active assets are not mapped to it or if it does not have active child asset groups. The system stores the login ID of the user and the system date along with the modified details..
