AssetPilot settings and access
Admin → Settings has three tabs: General, Access and About. Only AssetPilot admins can open Settings.
General
| Setting | Effect |
|---|---|
| Tag prefix | 2–5 letters, for example AP. Asset types can override it. Changing it doesn't rename existing assets. |
| Next number | Increments on every create and import |
| Number length | Zero-padding, for example 5 digits gives AP-00256 |
| Default currency | Preselected on the asset form. The dashboard sums each currency separately. |
| Warranty alert days | Assets whose warranty ends within this window appear in Alerts and on the dashboard |
Tags are unique across the site. The form pre-fills the next tag, and you can type your own as long as it is unused. Imports keep the tags in the file and fill in missing ones.
Access
| Field | Notes |
|---|---|
| Admin groups | Admins manage types, the lifecycle and settings. jira-administrators is always included and can't be removed. |
| Manager groups | Managers create, edit, check out and import assets but can't change configuration. |
| Who can view assets | Everyone on this Jira site, or Specific groups |
Permissions are enforced on the server. Hiding a button is never the only guard, so the same rules apply to the issue panel and to imports. See Permissions for the full role table.
About
The About tab shows the installed version and links to documentation, support, privacy, terms and the changelog. Restart onboarding runs the setup again.
No access
People without the Admin role who open Settings by URL see a clear message instead of an error.
To get access, ask a Jira administrator to add you to an admin group in Settings → Access.
