Role-based field restrictions allow you to customize the asset detail view for every team. Whether it’s IT or Accounting, everyone sees only the fields they actually need. This keeps the interface compact and free from distractions, enabling all colleagues to capture relevant data at a single glance.

Select the desired role and click on the small square to the left of the role title.

For a user with this role, the detail view of an asset will then look like this, for example:
