Check-In Asset

The Check-In Asset function is used to Check-In Assets that are currently checked out to a Customer or Employee.

Note for Mobile Device Users: Assets can also be checked in directly on a Windows Mobile/CE mobile device.
 

1.To access the Check-In feature, from the Main screen, select Asset Management > Check-In.  The Check-In screen shown below appears.  

 

You can also access this feature from the Asset List by highlighting the asset you want to check-in, then clicking the Check-In button on the Asset List toolbar.  When accessed this way, the selected asset's information will be pre-populated on the screen. For more information on using the Asset List, click here.

2.Select the asset or assets you want to check in.  Asset selection can be done by specifying an Asset Tag, a Customer or an Employee.  If an Asset Tag is supplied, the Checked Out To window will display the Customer or Employee information recorded at the time of Check-Out.

Note: Pinning can be used with Check-In transactions. Pinning allows you to "lock" the information entered into a field.  This is convenient if, for example, you are entering multiple new assets for a particular site and location.  You can enter the site and location once, then pin them.  The fields will retain the information you entered through each new entry until you unpin them.  In the example screen shown below, values are entered in the Site, Location and Department Code fields.  These three fields were Pinned by clicking on their PushPin-Off pushpins, causing them to look like PushPin-On this.  Click the PushPin-On pushpin again to unlock the field for entry of a different value.
 

3.After applying your choice of filter criteria, you can manually limit the list of Assets further by using CTRL and the left mouse button, clicking to highlight only those Assets in the Assets Checked-Out list that should be Checked-In, then click the > button to move them to the Assets ready to check-in list.  All the listed Assets can be shifted to the Assets ready to check-in list via the >> button.

 

The Select All button can be used to highlight all the records found by your choice of filter criteria. De-Select All can be used to clear any selections previously made.

 

The Detail button will open the Edit Asset screen for a highlighted record, to view or modify the Asset record prior to doing the Check-In.  If more than one record is selected, the Detail button will be disabled.

 

When you are satisfied with the Assets accumulated in the Assets ready to check-in list, you can optionally apply Notes to the transaction.

 

When the Print Receipt - Copies box has a value greater than zero, one or more Check-In receipts will be printed for this transaction.
 

4.You can optionally add Notes to these assets by clicking the Notes button or enter a Check In location in the Location field.  Select a new location for the asset will check the asset into the selected location, effectively moving it from its former location.
 

5.When the required fields have been satisfied, the Check-In button will be enabled.  Click it to post the transaction or click the Close button to exit without doing a Check-In.
