Feature Request: Bedside Location import

[Burnhamt256]

Would like to see the ability to add the Bedside location option to MUT. With the deployment of iOS devices in Healthcare this would speed up deployment if we can put in all the information at one time, instead of having to go back to each device one by one.

Is Bedside not just an extension attribute that you can do via EA_ ?

[Burnhamt256]

@staze, it is an Extension attribute but it also ties into the HealthCare listener. https://www.jamf.com/resources/product-documentation/healthcare-listener-installation-and-configuration-guide/

Which is why I think having it added to MUT would be a useful tool.

Hello @Burnhamt256,

It does look like the HealthCare listener uses Extension Attributes. "Use the Field Mapping options to map a field from the ADT message to an attribute of inventory information."

What @staze was getting at, is that you can already edit Extension Attributes with The MUT, by adding custom columns to your CSV. The heading of the column would be "EA_" and then the id of the EA, like EA_6 or EA_56.
