Managed Assets

Managed Assets are standard containers that do not have a sensor attached, but have associated rules. These containers can be easily monitored and controlled through the implemented rules. This article shows how to create and use Managed Assets.

If you have containers that do not require frequent monitoring, such as large bins or containers that only require collections on a scheduled service, the Managed Assets feature is a valuable tool to use within the platform.  Additionally, you may want to utilise this feature for administrative and container management purposes, allowing you to store and record all of your containers in one centralized platform. 

STEP 1: ADD ASSET TYPE

• Log into your Superfy Account.

• Click on the Settings icon located on the top right-hand side of the screen.
• Select Inventory from the listed menu.

• On the Inventory pop-up screen, click on Add Asset Type and enter the required information below

• • Asset Type Name - must be named Managed Asset as it is a necessary requirement for this feature to function correctly.
  • Capacity - this is the measurement of the container volume/capacity, which is typically included in the bin specification manual provided by the container manufacturer.
  • Icons - click on Use Superfy Icons and search for Managed and click on the Pin Icon to select the icon. 

• • Description - add a brief description of the container type.
  • Fill Height - this is not required as no sensor associated to the container.
  • Fill Gap - this is not required as no sensor is associated to the container.
  • Asset Tags - this is optional - add asset tags unique to the Managed Assets (e.g., bin type, name etc..). This is specifically useful for further filtering and container management purposes.

STEP 2: ADD PIN TO THE MAP
