    About this task

    Hardware and consumable models with a status of Fully Normalized, Partially Normalized, or Manufacturer Normalized can be reverted.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to a normalized hardware or consumable record.
      InterfaceAction
      Core UI
      • For hardware models, navigate to All > Product Catalog > Product Models > Hardware models.
      • For consumable models, navigate to All > Product Catalog > Product Models > Consumable models.
      Hardware Asset Workspace
      • For hardware models, navigate to All > Hardware Asset Workspace > Model management > Hardware models.
      • For consumable models, navigate to All > Hardware Asset Workspace > Model management > Consumable models.
    2. Open a hardware or consumable model record that is already normalized.
    3. Click Revert Normalization.
    4. Click OK on the confirmation message box.

    Result

    After the revert normalization process is complete, the following changes take place:
    • All the normalized fields present in the model are reverted and the normalization status changes to Match not Found.
    • Fields are reset to their original values and any rule associated with the model is deactivated.
    • After deactivation of the rule, revert normalization is run on all models that were normalized using that rule before.
    • The deactivated rule can no longer normalize any more models. The deactivated rule can't be reactivated. It’s a one time procedure.
    • The Revert Normalization option on the model record is replaced with the Normalize option.
