Typically a unique identification number will be assigned to each asset after procurement. All details related to the asset are maintained in a database against the asset ID. The asset ID is written on the asset or is printed on a paper label and pasted on the asset.

Technology

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a generic term that is used to describe a system that transmits the identity (in the form of a unique serial number) of an object or person wirelessly in a tag, using radio waves. Tags or Transponders are micro chips with an antenna which have a unique Identifier Number and memory which is programmable according to the customer requirement.
