Use the Asset Management > Assets > Management tab to add the partition and profile to which the asset is assigned. An asset can only be in one partition at a time. When you add an asset to a partition, all accounts associated with that asset are automatically added to that partition. All assets must be governed by a profile. New assets are automatically governed by the default profile unless otherwise specified.

The settings for an asset are shown below.
