Import assets to many entities using Datainjection plugin

I installed the GLPI and would like to import the assets with the Datainjection plugin, so far so good. My problem is: how to import the assets to the proper entities?
I previously created the entities and created a column in the import file that indicates the location where such an item should be inserted.
In the import screen, there is no way to direct the asset to the various entities, but from what I understand, I would have to do the import process in each entity.

Does anyone have any idea how I can resolve this? Automate the import to the correct destination, or automate the transfer to the appropriate entities after end the import in the root entity for example.

In my case, I use entities and children entities for each customer and yours subsidiary units. I have many clients with many affiliates and few assets in each client. They're all in one exce filel.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello everybody!
Has anyone been through a situation like this?
I need to insert objects that are in a single CSV worksheet where there is a column with the name of the entity where we must insert these objects.

Does anyone have any idea how we can get around this?

Re: Import assets to many entities using Datainjection plugin

Assets that are imported should be able to be assigned an entity using the "Rules for assigning an item to an entity" rule type (GLPI 10) based on other attributes of the assets.
I don't see a way to assign an entity during the injection process alone.
