Display the link between two objects in both objects in Assets

[Jonathan Shumate]

I am trying to figure out how I can display the link between two objects in Assets. 

In one object type, Laptop, I create an object attribute "Assigned to" and link it to a laptop in a different schema. This works fine.

But how do I display this information in the laptops object type?

What I want is that when I look at the laptop information, it shows me which user it is asigned to, and when I am looking at the user, I can see the laptop assigned to it.

Hello, 

In the object Type "Laptop", you can configure the object attribute "Assigned to" as followed (Type = Object and Type Value = People in which People is the object Type where your user is located.)

Now, when you create an new object in the object type "Laptop", you can assigned it to your user from the object type "People" through a dropdown list. 

When you view your object, you can see the link to the user it has been assigned to and directly click on his name. 

- From the attribute in the details section (1)

- From the Linked objects (outbound references) (2)

When you view your user, you can see the in the "Linked objects", that it has an inbound reference to your "Laptop 5".  (1)

You can also click on the "Object graph" to see the link in a more visual way. (2)

Is this an answer you were looking for ? 

Kind regards,

Inès

Is there a way to auto select the user? We have our laptop objects imported by CSV, our user objects imported by Azure AD sync. We just need to link the objects without manual intervention.
