# How Do I Create/Manage Asset Types?

Asset Types refer to the various types of assets that users in your organization will be inspecting. This can include vehicles, plants, racking, machinery, and more. Each Asset Type can have one or multiple Inspection Types associated with it. For example, when inspecting a vehicle, you might have a Daily Vehicle Inspection, a Monthly Maintenance Inspection, and a Re-assignment Inspection.

To create or modify Asset Types, navigate to the Asset section of the Settings page on the portal. (Please note that access to the settings page is limited to Wallet Administrators.)
