Select an assigned item from among the following items displayed in the Assigned item dialog box:

• Constant value

  Select this item when you want to register an item with a fixed value. Select an item from the drop-down list.

• Device information (default)

  JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Manager's management information (device type) is assigned to the device information and set as the device type.

• Custom field

  When you specify a JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Manager's custom field, management information is obtained and set as the device type. If the corresponding item name does not exist, nothing is set.

Set the update method for the value selected to the item to be assigned to Overwrite setting.

• Overwrite (default)

  A value (even if already registered in the asset management database) is overwritten by the value in the collected ITDM2 management information. If the applicable value in the collected ITDM2 management information is NULL or N/A, the registered value is deleted.

  This option is not displayed for an item that requires settings.

• Overwrite (Do not overwrite when there is no data.)

  A value (even if already registered in the asset management database) is overwritten by the value in the collected ITDM2 management information. However, if the applicable value in the collected ITDM2 management information is NULL or N/A, it is not overwritten.

  This option becomes the default for an item that requires settings.

• Not overwritten

  If a value is already registered in the asset management database, it is not overwritten.
