Hello from the Reftab Team!
We’ve recently set up a system for loans! it’s a useful feature where you can loan out an asset, tag it as being checked out, and when it returns check it back in. The loan page now keeps a record of all items that have been loaned out. We’ve also incorporated filtered views to see all items, checked-in items, checked-out items and missing items. It’s a feature that saves time and helps keep things organized. When you’re looking for equipment, or want to loan something out you’ll always know where it is, who has it and when it is scheduled for return.
We built it to be as easy as possible in order to eliminate the headache of loaning equipment and dealing with tracking. It is easy to use, just scan your QR code or input the asset # and click “check out”. Then, input the loanee and you’re done. You can also input any notes on the loan if you like.
It’s a great system because it means that you don’t have to keep a separate list of assets and a separate list of loaned out items. Everything is in one place. If an asset is loaned out, it will be indicated on the individual asset, and from the loan page, you can click to view that asset. Our system also keeps a record of all transactions so you can look back at specific assets to see loan history. It’s a great way to keep records of an items use.
In the future we plan on developing a system to reserve items for use so you can manage when things will be ready for loan and schedule accordingly.
Thanks, and stay tuned for more!
