Company Equipment

Beyond client machines and warehouse materials, itsTrack also tracks your own company tools and equipment — drills, ladders, test devices, vehicles, and other gear your team uses daily.

What you track

For each piece of company equipment:

  • Name and identification number
  • Type — tool, device, vehicle, safety gear
  • Current holder — who has it right now
  • Status — active, in service, lost, retired
  • Location — warehouse, with a worker, on a job site
  • Loan and return history

Why track company equipment?

  • Accountability — know who has what at all times
  • No lost tools — reduce replacement costs
  • Maintenance planning — schedule service for your own gear
  • Job costing — include tool usage in job reports

Checking out equipment

When a worker takes a tool:

  1. Go to Warehouse → Company Equipment.
  2. Find the item and click Check out.
  3. Select the worker and optional job link.
  4. Save.

The item status changes to With worker — [Name].

Returning equipment

When the worker brings it back:

  1. Open the equipment record.
  2. Click Return.
  3. Add a condition note if needed (for example, "needs calibration").
  4. Save.

The return is logged in the item's history.

ActiveAvailable or in normal use
In serviceSent for repair or calibration
LostMissing — flagged for investigation
RetiredNo longer in use, kept for records

History and audit

Every checkout and return is logged:

  • Date and time
  • Worker name
  • Linked job (if any)
  • Condition notes

Managers can review who used a tool last and whether it came back on time.

tip

Make equipment checkout part of the daily routine — just like check-in. Workers take gear, check it out in the app, and return it at end of day.
