How heavily do most of you leverage extension attributes to track the state of a laptop, such as in-service, out-of-service, damaged, out for repair or slated for return to the IT team because a staff member has departed/been terminated?

We don't have a separate IT asset management system at this time and use JAMF as our system of record for all laptops, desktops, and iPads. We have been using a spreadsheet as a tracker for these items, but being able to build smart groups and run reports using extension attributes that indicate the state of the laptop would be more appealing.

Any tips or best practices for those that do leverage extension attributes for this? Good idea, bad idea?

Thanks!
