Topic: LINK ASSET AND INVENTORY TAB

We are warehousing only a few different types of DSS satellite equipment. however, we are stocking hundreds of them. They come in shipping pallets (batches) by the hundreds and we are using the inventory tab to keep track of the quantity of every pallet batch. We then use the asset tab to keep track of every individual unit (kit) within the pallet batch. Then we are using a custom batch id number to identify which pallet batch each individual unit came in on. We then assign a certain quantity of the units to specific techs who then take the items and install them in residential homes. We have over 80 different tech in multiple warehouses. In order to keep track of the number of units we give to each tech, we are using the location field to house the tech's name and ID. Every time we give a tech a certain number of assets we have to manually do a move in the asset tab and then redo the same move in the inventory tab.

If you can add a feature to where we can automatically link each asset to an inventory id that way when we move an asset in the asset tab it automatically updates the move in the inventory tab as well and we can keep count of how many units we give to each tech. Also, can you put the custom fields as query options in the transaction reports as well.

Thank You,
Jeff

Re: LINK ASSET AND INVENTORY TAB

hey jeff.  i talked this over with justin this afternoon & we came to the following conclusion.  this feature is part of an evolution of tracmor.  we are going to get a rough estimate for implementation, just so you can get a feel for what it might cost.  after we have that info. lets talk some more.  now believe it or not, there is a company in australia who recently contacted us looking for the identical feature!  really a quite remarkable coincidence.  it is possible that the cost could be shared, but i could not confirm that until we contact the folks in australia.
