To add a code:

1. In the Managed class list, click the link of the class to which a code is to be added.
   The code ID of the selected class is displayed. Note that some code information cannot be added. For details about the code information that cannot be added, see (5) Code information that cannot be added or deleted.
   
2. Click the link of the Code ID to which a code is to be added.
   The code and the corresponding display value are displayed.
   
3. Click the Add button.
   The Add Code dialog box appears.
   Code value and Display value must be specified. You cannot add a code or display value that has already been registered.
   Note that the meaning of a code may depend on the numerical range in which it is specified. The code ranges that can be specified have specific code IDs. For details about the code specification ranges, see (4) Code's meaning depending on its specification range.
   To cancel, click the Close button.
   
4. Click the OK button.
   The code is added based on the specified information, and the Add Code dialog box closes.
   The following figure shows the Add Code dialog box in which a code to be registered is specified.

Note

To add codes in CPUType and OSType for added items, make sure that each specified code matches a CPU type in the system information.

To add a unique code to CPUType, specify a value in the range from 00000 to 99999.

To edit a code's display value:

1. From the list of Managed class, click the link of the class whose code is to be edited.
   The code IDs of the selected class are displayed.

   The code information is updated based on the specified information, and the Edit Code dialog box closes.
   Specification of Display value is mandatory.
   

To delete code information:

1. From the list of Managed class, click the link of the class whose code is to be deleted.
   The code IDs of the selected class are displayed.
   
2. Click the Code ID link of the code to be deleted.
   The codes and corresponding display values are displayed.
   
3. In the Code value list, click the link of the code to be deleted.
4. Click the Delete button.
   The selected code information is deleted.
   Note that a code whose check box is disabled cannot be deleted. For the code information that cannot be deleted, see (5) Code information that cannot be added or deleted.
   

Depending on the range of the code specification, the range of codes that limit each code ID may be different from the code ID used by the asset management system. When adding or changing codes, you must note the appropriate specification range.

The following table shows the code IDs for which the range of addable codes is limited.

Table 10-4 Code IDs depending on their specification range

Managed class (managed class name)	Code ID (display name)	Range for addition
HardwareInfo (hardware information)	ModelKind (composition)	970-998
	MonitorKind (monitor type)	970-998
	MonitorResolution (monitor resolution)	970-998
InstalledList (installed software list)	InstalledKind (software type)	170-198
LocationInfo (location information)	Attribute (attribute)	170-198

The following table shows the meanings of the codes depending on their specification range.
