  1. Complete the required fields. Select the PharmacyIT Schema and choose Laptop as the object type. The Asset Tag Number and Name should be identical, following the standard PHR#### format. If you're creating a new object*, use the next sequential number (for example, if the last is PHR0023, create PHR0024). The Make (typically Dell) and Model of your laptop can usually be found on the back of the device**.

*Make sure to rename the device accordingly by going to Settings → System → Rename

**The model of your laptop can also be found from step 6
