Generic objects
How do I use object management?
A procedure is available to help you set up this plugin.
What is the purpose of object management?
This plugin allows you to add new types of inventory objects, integrated into the GLPI framework.
Can I integrate with other plugins?
Yes, several plugins can interact with object management:
What types of fields can be added to the GLPI object created?
The object will appear like any other object in the park, so you have a wide choice of fields available. We invite you to consult the list here
Can I add fields to an element other than the park?
No, this is not possible. Only the park can benefit from additional objects. You can use the additional fields plugin if you have other specific needs.
Can additional fields be visible to everyone?
Yes. You can manage read, write, delete, etc. permissions for each field you add from check:administration > profiles , object management tab of the relevant profile.
By which other GLPI elements can the additional field be visible?
The additional fields you create are visible to other GLPI objects:
Use child entities
Use Assistance
Use Item in the dustbin
Use Notes
Use Historical
Use Templates
Use Financial and administratives information
Use Contracts
Use Documents
Use Reservations
Use Field unicity
Use Global search

Can I make an element created with the plugin reservable?
Yes. In the behaviour section of the plugin, you can tick the use reservations box. It will then be usable like any other element in your park.
