Asset Tag

A label with a unique identifier attached to IT equipment for inventory tracking.

Definition

Asset tags use barcodes, QR codes, or RFID and link to records in the asset management system. They support tracking location, assignment, warranty, and disposal. Tickets should reference the asset tag.

Example

Scan asset tag IT-004512 to pull its owner and warranty in the ITAM tool.

Exam tip

Include asset ID in tickets and update the inventory when assets move.
