Hello,

How do i add a custom column to the Devices summary?

Eg, I Have

Name | IP | OS | Model | Memory | Device Type | Location |. I want to add a custom attribute I’ve created called User Name. How do I do this?

Need to add it under Inventory, devices.

You can assign devices to users: Assigning Devices to users/people

Or add the usual way: http://community.spiceworks.com/help/Add_Your_Own_Custom_Attributes

If device summary is a report, there is already a user name field to choose from, a custom attribute is not required

Hello Jeff/Rod-IT,

It is actually not a report.

it is under http://Servername:8080/inventory/devices.

I want to see a tab called UserName & Department if possible to the list displayed. See the image below.

I am in the same place you describe but I don’t see how you are getting that table up

Hello Help2523 - You won’t be able to add custom attributes as columns to that section. I know it has been talked about before, but I was unable to find a feature request on it. I would recommend that you create a new feature request for this from the link below so that is will get more attention from other Spiceheads as well as our Dev Team:

Not sure. It’s under Inventory->Devices.

The table is new to 7.5. You can switch to it by using the gear icon in the top right of your inventory to switch between views.

Thanks for reply, but even after switching I don’t see option to display username. Maybe that feature is not there.

Right - there is no option to display the username - you would need to submit a feature request as Will suggested. I was just answering the question of how to get to the table view.

Note, if you wrote a plugin, you might also be able to add the username to the view - I’m not 100% sure, but it might be possible.

Jackie.
