Today in the Administration > Inventory menu, we have 2 ways of interacting with equipment through the status that would be considered a life cycle of the equipment as a whole

The first of them, the clearest, is the default status, perfect, it is applied to practically all classes of devices that have direct inventory (Agent + SNMP): Computers, Printers and Network Device

And the second way in the same menu, at the end of the page, is called "Agent cleaning", using the "Change status" action
Today this second menu works only for computers, although the default status is applied to computers, printers and network devices

My suggestion would be to include these 2 types of device: Printer + Network Device, so that this menu could change its status, just like it already happens with computers

Or that this option was created right below this same menu, allowing you to select whether or not to use these other inventories as an option.

The logic behind this is that if the computer is necessary to have a certain level of control over its life cycle automatically, because printers and network devices that already come from SNMP inventories cannot also have the same support.

Hello,

INITIAL OBSERVATION

The Rules engine for assigning an item to an entity stops at the first rule checked, so it can't automate several actions to follow, each with its own type of criteria. The Business Rules engine for assets can do this, but the types of criteria and actions are limited. As for the Dictionaries engine, it can only act on the same type of data as the criterion. All this works very well, but lacks the flexibility to write richer rules.

SUGGESTED DEVELOPMENT

Can we expand data types available in criterion on business rules actions for assets?

Examples of additional criterion types :

• Name
• Model
• or any type of data that GLPI-Agent can retrieve
•  ...

Examples of additional action types :

• Assign group
• Assign Computer type, Printer type, Monitor type ...
• ...

CASE STUDIES

For example, I'd like a regular expression on the Computer Name to define an Inventory Number, and another regular expression on the same Computer Name to define the Group in Charge.

Example: a Computer named XXX-A-123456 will have the Group in Charge A and the Inventory Number 123456 (a rule for assigning an item to an Entity is already based on the code XXX).

I also want a criterion on the Model of a Computer (or Printer, Network Device, Monitor, etc.), possibly associated with its Manufacturer, to define its Type.

Examples:

• if a Computer Model contains the expression AIO or iMac, then its Type is All-in-One
• if a Computer Model contains the expression book, then its Type is Portable
• if a Printer Model contains the expression ColorLaserJet, then its Type is Color Laser Printer
• if the Manufacturer of a Monitor is Epson and its Model begins with EB, EF, EH or CO, then its Type is Video-projector.

If you're interested in this suggestion, do you think this development is possible?

Thank you.

Hello would it be possible to add a signature pad in jquery that can be used to confirm assignement of assets to a user ? 

The idea would be to have unicity across itemtypes.

For example, an inventory number must be unique, whatever the itemtype.

wawax posted this idea to the project repository and tagged it as an enhancement.

It would be very useful to be able to place links in an article in the knowledge base, that lead to another place in the same article. This would make it easier to navigate through a long article, or even to make a table of contents.

include a flag on Entities form allowing to disable (deactivate) an entity no longer used, without the need to remove / migrate all the content related to this entity.

It is really hard to learn how GLPI works. The business model is complicated, and all the documentation is english or french is deprecated 

Adjust GLPI to TISAX certificate and ISO/IEC 27001 requirements.

GLPI is in 80% inline with TISAX requirements.

Will be super useful for all companies what have to implement TISAX and they already using GLPI.

Tthere is only few point missing in GLPI to be TISAX compliance, like:

E-learing platform

Risk assessments

Hi GLPI devels
I think it will be nice to have in GLPI database an active lsit of vulnerabilities (CVEs)  for computers and virtual machines.
GLPI agent or Fusion agent could use debsecan or other system tools to detect vulnerabilities and raport them to GLPI Database.
Searching or making raports from computer assets for active (fixable) CVEs would be very nice

Bonjour,

Je pense que ce serait bien si les personnes peuvent laisser un avis sur les plugins. Cela permet de connaitre les retours des personnes qui l'ont déjà utilisés. Avantages: Inconvénients d'un plugin.
