I am able to enter the asset tag into the bios and retrieve it with the following vbs script.
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _
& strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colSMBIOS = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_SystemEnclosure")
For Each objSMBIOS in colSMBIOS
Wscript.Echo "Part Number: " & objSMBIOS.PartNumber
Wscript.Echo "Serial Number: " _
& objSMBIOS.SerialNumber
Wscript.Echo "Asset Tag: " _
& objSMBIOS.SMBIOSAssetTag
Next
And then I found this xml file somewhere in keseya that will retrived the computer description and put it in a custom filed so I'm guessing I just slightly modify this script to get it to work, but I'm completely new to this.

I can handle the obvious and change Computer Description to Asset Tag, but I'm guessing this is the key line:
<Parameter xsi:type="StringParameter" name="SourceContent" value="root\cimv2:Win32_OperatingSystem.Description" />
What do I put in place of "root\cimv2:Win32_OperatingSystem.Description"
And excuse me if I put this in the wrong forum. First time poster and new user.
