The system views "Assets Map," "Assets List," and "Asset Inventory" cannot be removed, but custom views can be updated or removed as needed. Clicking on Views Listing in the left navigation will display a list of tracked assets based on applied filters, sorting, and selected fields
The Fields Modal allows users to select field types as "System Generated Fields" or "User-Generated Fields." The selected fields are then visible in the view.

The Filters Modal allows filtering the tracked asset listing using the field name, comparison operator, and values. Additionally, the AND and OR operators can be used to apply more advanced levels of filtering.
Filters can currently be applied only to field types such as Single-line Text, Checkbox, Decimal, and Number. Selecting an operator or changing the filter value will display updated results without any page refresh.
The Sorting Modal allows sorting the tracked asset views listing by using field name and sorting direction..
Sorting can be applied to field types like Single-line Text, Checkbox, Decimal, Date, and Number. Selecting a field and sorting direction updates the results instantly, without a page refresh.
