Add Asset Quantity
Complete version of Asset Cloud only.
This feature allows you to add quantity to your multi-quantity assets. Unlike multi-quantity assets, purchase details are not added when creating a new multi-quantity asset. You can include purchase details (such as cost and vendor) when you add quantity to your asset. This allows you to have varying purchase information for different quantities. For instance, you may purchase 100 folding chairs from vendor A for $200, then later purchase 100 more folding chairs from Vendor B for $150. Entering the purchase information when you add the quantity allows you to keep track of the differing purchase dates, costs, etc.
- Click on Assets > Add Asset Quantity.
- The Add Asset Quantity screen will appear.
Note that certain fields on this screen have the option to be "locked." When a field is in the locked state, it will preserve the data you've input for future transactions. This feature comes in handy when you're either adding multiple assets to a specific location or checking out several assets to a single customer. To lock a specific field, simply click on the lock icon. If you want to lock all fields with this icon at once, you can use the Lock All button for quick action. Conversely, if you wish to unlock all the fields to allow for new information, you can select Unlock All.
