Default value of CMDB status field
-
Hello,
Is it possible to change the default state of the CMDB status field to : "In build" for all new assets?
I modified the field located in : Administration > Predefined content > CMDB status > Default status for inventory imports : "In build".
But this has no effect for CSV imports.I tried to put a CMDB_status field with a value of "in build" in my CSV import file.
But during each import, the value of the field is overwritten by the value of the CSV file.Thanks.

Wow, wrestling with CMDB status defaults can be tricky! It sounds like the system stubbornly prioritizes CSV data over the configured default. Have you explored any transform scripts or business rules that might be overriding the Administration settings during CSV imports? Perhaps a script is explicitly setting the status based on other data within the file. I think steal brainrot are worth exploring to avoid this issue. Maybe you can share your import script code for better insight.
