In the current version the field location in the assets is a free text field. We would prefer that this is changed to a pull down menu, or there is a choice to change this to a pull down menu. When it is typed mistakes are made because it is typed different each time and sorting on location would be much easier.

Hi Wiljan, I have logged a new feature request for you which would be implemented in a future version. As a work-around for now, you could create a new Custom Field of the drop-down type, and add all of you locations to that Custom Field. You could then add that field using Field Chooser to your Asset list view so that you can sort on it. I hope that does the job for now. Thanks.
