No. Install Asset 7.0.03 which is current to patch 003. Install Patch 007 which will bring Asset up to 007, but unfortunately will overwrite any changes 008 made to the other apps. Install Patch 008 or 009 which will bring ALL of the apps to the same level.
We went live on 007 in Spring 08 but were looking at patching ITSM to 008 or 009 this spring, while also trying to get the ITSM Suite licensing that would have given us Asset (the only one we lack). It was not funded, but we delayed our patching until after that decision so as to avoid the situation that you are in. Applying 007 at our site requires that I reconstruct a _lot_ of customizations in Incident - learned and documented when we went from 006 to 007 just before go live in May 08, whereas 008 and 009 had very little effect on Incident (better designed patches) and mostly applied to Change and Task which we have not customized.

Our first attempt to install Asset resulted in a pile of errors against missing forms (e.g., AST:PurchaseLineItemAssetJoin). I was puzzled because I expected the Asset install to handle all the AST forms. Perhaps this is because we are at ITSM patch 008? So Chris, you are saying that we should 1. Install ITSM patch 007 (downgrade) 2. Install Asset 3.

Because patch 007 will apply to ALL ITSM apps, it will knock ALL of your other apps back to 007. Then you can run 008 against everything. The release notes for 009 were very specific about all of this... not sure about 008. If you had to do any post 008 cleanup on Incident, etc., you will have to do it again.

Our current configs are: ARS 1.7 p005 Incident/Problem/Change 7.0.03, p008 Windows 2003 server SQL Server 2005 We are opening an issue with BMC to get some direction, but I wondered if anyone else has experience in "retro fitting" Asset into an existing ITSM install. I'm hoping to be able to do this without doing a ground-up install with Asset first, then Incident/Problem/Change, then patch, then re-apply customizations. Am I dreaming?
