Defining equipment model templates

Create templates that you can assign to the equipment model entities that you created in the ServiceNow AI Platform. You can use these templates to characterize an equipment model or structure the data that describes your physical industrial facility by grouping similar types of equipment model entities.

Create an equipment model template
Create an equipment model template record that identifies and describes the use of the template. After you create an equipment model template, you can create hierarchical levels and types for it.
Create sorting levels for equipment model templates
Create and assign hierarchical levels for your equipment model template to control how equipment is sorted and organized.
Create equipment model level types
Create granular level types within each equipment model template level that you created. The granular level types that you create within that level describe the type of production processes within it.
