Spanish term

activo (as noun)

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Computers (general)
A list of units of measurement relating to licencing requirements for software contains "por activo" and has as a corresponding definition "se requiere una licencia para todos los "Server Endpoint", "Client Endpoint", "Device Endpoint" u "Other Endpoint" fisicos o lógicos, monitoreados, gestionados o descubiertos por el Product." I'm tempted to translate "activo" as "asset" (borrowing the word from bookkeeping), but would appreciate confirmation or correction.
Proposed translations (English)
5 ASSET

Thank you Tom.
Thomas Ochiltree (asker) Jul 6, 2008:
The words in English in my question are given in English in the otherwise Spanish original text (hence the quotation marks that surround them in the original. The original is in two columns: une headed by "Unidades de Medida" and the other by "Definició de Unidad de Medida" "Por activo" is one of the entries in the left hand column. The Text that I quoted is the beginning of the "Definición de Unidad de Medida" corresponding to it.

Si, por favor. Al menos la oración donde se emplea esa frase.
Robert Mota Jul 6, 2008:
Contexto para menos confusión
Ángel Domínguez Jul 6, 2008:
Uff esa mezcla de los dos idiomas me resulta superconfusa... ¿podrías poner el texto original en español?

I am in charge of assets and inventory at work and that`what "activos" are called in English.

You are right in your "tempted" translation.

Good luck

resource/asset

resource or asset, in that order of preference. That's how I read it in this particular field.
