About This Integration

Integration Summary

Asset Vision Registry^TM from Scalable is an automatic inventory solution that enables IT asset management (ITAM). This integration enables information collected by Asset Vision Registry^TM to be imported into  for the purpose of increasing the efficiency of employees on the Service Desk, IT departments and the company as a whole in 2 stages:

• asset management thanks to an exhaustive inventory of software, equipment (e.g. Virtual machines and PCs), etc. via the Asset Management menu;
• management of changes, availability, continuity and capacity thanks to the knowledge, proficiency and graphical visualization of relationships between configuration items (CIs), via the Extended CMDB menu.
   

Step-by-Step Integration Process

Scalable Asset Vision Registry^TM can be integrated with  in 5 easy steps:

• Step 1: Check the list of prerequisites
• Step 2: Export the Scalable Asset Vision Registry^TM data (.csv files)
• Step 3: Import the integration templates into (.exp file)
• Step 4: Link each imported integration template with the corresponding .csv file
• Step 5: Plan automatic integration of data with the imported preset templates

Step 1: Check the list of prerequisites

• You should have an account giving you access to your Scalable Asset Vision platform and to the EasyVista template.
• You should have an account giving you access to your  platform at a high enough level to access Administration and Integration menus.

Step 2: Export the Scalable Asset Vision Registry ^TM data (.csv files)

        see  Scalable Online Help How to export data from a view  (EN)

The Scalable data you can import into  can be accessed from 9 different EasyVista menu views.
         

     Notes: 

• In order to correctly integrate the .csv files into  using the data templates provided at step 3, use the default export options below.
• You may also include the hidden columns (check the Include hidden columns box).

Step 3: Import the integration templates into (.exp file)

        see  Integration Templates and Import/Export Templates
 

You may:

•  either import Integration Template object types supplied in the sample exp. file below into your platform (via the Administration > Import / Export > Import menu) ;
• or create your own integration templates according to your needs.
   

The .exp file below contains 10 integration templates already configured with the appropriate connector, and with correct mapping between the fields of each .csv form to be used and the fields of the  table they will be integrated with. In this example, 2 .csv files with different data originating from the main view were exported from Scalable.

         Sample .exp file

Step 4: Link each imported integration template with the corresponding .csv file

        see  Integration Templates

Step 5: Plan automatic integration of data with the imported preset templates

        see  Integration Templates
