Hi @Tanushree Maiti ,

Thank you for your response. Regarding my question number 3 and 4

For question No.3 Is updating the Table is a best practice? - I have not understood it see what I now is that there is no custom field in the Hardware as well as in Configuration Item table although I have created a custom field in the Asset CI Install Status Mappings (alm_asset_ci_state_mapping) table by name "Operational Status" and it is only a custom field and nothing else.

For Question No.4 Is even updating the table required in this case? - let me clarify, the requirement that I want to do/achieve Does it have to do anything with this Asset CI Install Status Mappings (alm_asset_ci_state_mapping) table do I need to update the table? Is it Required to update the table for the requirement that I want to achieve? and if required to update the table, does it come under best practices to update the asset ci install status mapping table and also if I update the table does it going to help me in future/long run where i can go and check which CI are Retired OR Operational. I hope I am not confusing you.

Regards,

Harsh
