Identifying your Items

Identify what type of items you will track. There are 3 different types of items available:

[table caption=”” width=”100%” colwidth=”33%|33%|33%” colalign=”left|left|left”]
Assets, Asset Stock, Inventory
“Used for a certain duration e.g. a MacBook at NYC Office being used by James”,”Asset Stocks are similar to Assets and are also used for a certain duration.”,”Inventory includes items that can be consumed e.g. 10 water bottles used at weekly meeting”
“Assets are tracked individually e.g MacBook #1, MacBook #2 and so on. Each Asset would be added as an individual entry so you know exactly where each of them is.”,”Stock Assets are not tracked individually e.g. 20 LAN Cables or 10 nail bits where individual tracking is unnecessary; you just want to keep track of how many are available and how many are assigned/checked out.”,”You maintain a stock quantity e.g. 10 Water Bottles at NYC, 30 at SF or 100 gallons of a chemical in the Boston lab”
“You assign/checkout an asset to a user e.g. MacBook #1 checked out to James”,”You assign/checkout a particular quantity of an Asset Stock to a user e.g. 10 LAN Cables checked out to James.”,”You add inventory stock when you get the supplies and remove stock when you consume them.”
“No quantity is associated to assets since each asset is tracked individually.”,”You maintain a stock quantity. “,” “
