IT Inventory and Its Structure in Ewida Standard

The computer hardware and equipment inventory in Ewida Standard is based on an object-oriented structure. Each element in the inventory software is relationally connected with others, which makes the IT inventory clear, consistent, and easy to manage. Sets group devices and software, and the entire set can be assigned to employees or moved between users with a single action. The Ewida Standard IT inventory software also supports consumables, purchase documents, warranties, and licenses in CAL, OEM, and standard license models.

Structure of IT Inventory Data

The IT inventory in Ewida Standard is based on interconnected objects that create a consistent structure for managing a company’s IT assets.

  • User - a company employee and the highest-level object in the IT inventory hierarchy; dynamically determines the location of assigned sets, devices, and software (location, department, section, room number).
  • Set - a group of devices and/or software that can be assigned or detached from a user with a single action.
  • Device - any hardware component, subcomponent, tool, or company equipment item.
  • Software - a single application installed on a computer, assigned to sets and licenses.
  • License - standard, CAL, or OEM; creates relationships with software, sets, and devices and supports automatic associations.
  • Consumable - ink, toner, battery, or another item assigned to a user, set, or device.
  • Purchase document - an invoice that creates relationships with devices, software, licenses, and consumables.
  • Warranty document - linked with sets, devices, and software and supports warranty period tracking.
IT Inventory Structure in Ewida Standard

Software for Company Equipment Inventory and Computer Asset Tracking

Traditional IT inventory includes tracking computer hardware, software, licenses, computers, and consumables. Thanks to its object-based structure, Ewida Standard inventory software also allows tracking phones, tools, and any type of company equipment. The Set object in the inventory application can represent any grouping of devices and software.

Flexible Company Equipment Inventory

The Set object in Ewida Standard IT inventory software allows grouping any devices and software into logical equipment sets within a company.

  • Phone set - devices such as a handset, battery, and SIM card can be attached to the set.
  • USB drive set - several USB drives used by an employee can be assigned.
  • Network set - for example router, switch, or other infrastructure components.
  • Tool set - any tools can be treated as devices in the inventory.

Therefore, a set in the computer hardware inventory can represent anything that serves as a container for other devices or software. Thanks to this approach, company equipment inventory is not limited by rigid structures.

Creating sets allows assigning or removing an entire group of devices, software, and licenses to or from an employee with a single action. This significantly simplifies and accelerates daily equipment tracking and inventory processes within a company.
