Create the automation rule

  1. From the Automation Rules index page, select the blue Add icon to reveal the Add Automation Rule dialog.
  2. Configure the trigger:

    • Trigger: On Object Update

    • Scope: Asset

  3. Configure the condition:

    • Field: Tag

      (A different tag value can be used based on the your requirement.)

    • Condition: Equals disposed (current value)

  4. Configure the action:

    • Action: Update the record

      Update Field: Asset Status > Set to Disposed

  5. After the automation rule is configured, any device updated with the specified tag will be automatically marked as Disposed on its Assets Details page and will no longer appear in the Active Computers list.
