Asset Commands Overview

The Asset commands are available from the Asset group on the Ribbon toolbar, or from the command line.

From the Archibus tab on the Ribbon, select the following from the Asset group: From the command line, type: Purpose
Asset / Asset Layer AFM_ASTLAY Set the current layer to be one of the intelligent drawing layers that register their contents with the project database.
Asset / Edit Data AFM_EDITDATA Edits data associated with an AutoCAD entity and adds asset properties to make it database-aware.
Asset / Edit Data Multiple AFM_ EDITDATAMULT Edits the data associated with multiple AutoCAD entities at once.
Asset / Number AFM_NUMBER Numbers polylines or spaces sequentially, as for adding Room Numbers.
Asset / Catalog AFM_CATALOG Re-registers selected assets with the database, revalidates their data, and refreshes their asset text.
Asset / Uncatalog AFM_UNCATALOG Unlinks an asset with its database record.

Note: For your convenience, the Number, Edit Data, and Edit Data Multiple commands may also appear on the Navigator in CAD. The Navigator in CAD also includes tasks, such as Set Rooms and Set Equipment, that run the Set Asset Layer command.
