IntelliTrack® Rotational Assets Guide ​

How to set up and run the IntelliTrack Rotational Assets bundle: assets and bulk changes, maintenance and calibration, reservations, check in and check out, containers and insights, plus the administrator setup for items, lookups and assignees.

Chapter 1 - Rotational Assets ​

Welcome to the Rotational Assets bundle. This bundle is designed to track the rotational flow of assets from assignees to a site-location. It contains workflows that manage rotational assets. They include:

  • Asset Check Out: check out an asset from a site-location to an assignee.
  • Asset Check In: check in an asset from an assignee and place it back in a site-location.
  • Asset Reservation: reserve an asset for a specific time period in days so that it is available for the assignee at that time.

This bundle will also help you track:

  • Asset Maintenance / Calibration: the maintenance and calibration schedule for an asset.
  • Asset Movement: the movement of the asset from one location to another.

Rotational Assets Terminology ​

Understanding IntelliTrack terminology will help orient you to the Rotational Assets Bundle and its capabilities. Refer to the table below to find the meanings and connected workflows of some of the most common terms you will come across in the Rotational Assets Bundle.

Common IntelliTrack Rotational Assets Bundle Terms

TERMWORKFLOWDEFINITION
TenantBundle SetupAll data elements contained within a Tenant are segregated to that Tenant. In other words, data elements cannot be transferred or shared between Tenants.
SiteLocation SetupSite is the first tier of the organizational hierarchy. A Site belongs to a Tenant. Multiple sites can belong to one Tenant. Sites can be physical or logical units.
LocationLocation SetupLocation is the second tier of the organizational hierarchy. A location belongs to a site and is stationary; it is often referred to as a "physical location" because it has a physical presence. Examples of a location could be a bin, rack, shelf, or closet. More than one location can belong to a Site. Locations cannot belong to more than one Site.
Sub-locationLocation SetupEach location can also have multiple sub-locations. To create a sub-location, enter the “Parent Location” field during the create location process.
ContainersMoveable Storage SetupA container is a movable storage unit that resides in a physical location. Examples of a container include a toter or a shipping container.
ItemsAsset SetupItems are physical goods or materials that the organization wishes to track. An item is unique to each Tenant. All item numbers and alternate item numbers must be unique within a Tenant. When performing your initial Item import or data entry process think of an item as the master record which contains the properties that are common between every like item (part number, item group, manufacturer, check out settings, etc.). The unique item details are contained in the asset (asset #, serial #, etc.) imports. The item is the "parent" record of an asset.
AssetsAsset SetupAn asset is an item that has a value in the market, generates revenue, has a maintenance or calibration cost, is tracked by assignee and location. Examples of rotational assets include tools, rugged devices, and computer equipment. An asset is always assumed to have a quantity of 1.
AssigneesCheck Out ManagementAn assignee is used with rotational asset management. The assignees are displayed at the Assignees page. An assignee may be any entity such as: a person, a location, a department. The Rotational Assets Bundle has three types of assignees:
Owner: the owner of an asset; this assignee is associated with an asset in the asset’s record in the Owner field.
Check Out Assignee: the assignee to whom the asset is checked out or reserved; an asset is checked out to this assignee or reserved for this assignee.
Site Contact Assignee: the assignee may be designated as Site contact. The Site Contact Assignee is listed at the Site as a contact.

Chapter 2 - Asset Data Management ​

When you add an asset to IntelliTrack, the Asset is required to be associated to an item in IntelliTrack.

Qualities of an Asset ​

In IntelliTrack, the asset has the following qualities:

  • Each asset has a unique asset number and may be tracked individually.
  • When an asset is added to the application and placed in a location, the asset number is able to checked out, reserved, and moved.
  • The asset quantity is always considered to be 1.
  • An asset cannot be deleted; when it is no longer in active use, it can be retired.

Assets Page ​

The Assets page provides a way to easily manage your assets. To reach the Assets page, select Home> Assets > Assets.

Assets page reached from the Assets menu in the left sidebar, showing the asset grid with Add and Bulk Changes buttons

This page lists the following information about an Asset:

  • Asset number: Unique asset number. This is a required field.
  • Item Number associated with the asset: Item Number that is associated with this asset. This is a required field.
  • Asset serial number: Unique serial number of this asset. This is an optional field.
  • Status: Status assigned to this asset. This is an optional field. The Status options available are from the Status Lookup list (Management > Assets > Status).
  • Description: Item Number Description that this asset inherits from the associated Item Number. This field is populated when the associated item has a description.
  • Site: Site that the asset resides in. This field is populated when the asset location is set.
  • Location: Location that the asset resides in. This field is populated when the asset location is set.

Note

The site-location is the default location of the asset. The assumed quantity of an asset is always 1.

Asset Auto-Number Setting ​

Note

When the Asset Auto-Number setting is enabled for the Tenant, the Asset Number is automatically generated and you do not have to enter it in the Asset Number field.

The screen example below shows the Add Asset page in a Tenant that has Asset Auto-Numbering Enabled (see "Asset"). In this case, Auto-Numbered appears in the Asset Number field. You do not have to enter an asset number, it will be automatically generated when the Asset is saved.

Importing Assets ​

Assets may also be imported into IntelliTrack via a CSV Import Template. It is available from the Import Assets page. Select Home > Assets > Import Assets to reach this page.

Important

When Asset Auto-Numbering is ON the asset import file must still contain a value for the Asset Number when importing a new asset for the import to process; however, the resulting imported assets will still follow the auto-numbering schema. This means that the imported assets will be auto-numbered instead of using the Asset Number value in the Auto Number field provided in the import file.

To import asset data into a tenant, follow these guidelines:

  • Download the template.
  • Follow the field requirements and field order in the template.
  • Upload the template file (it is in .csv format).
  • An email will be sent to your inbox detailing the results of the import.

For best results:

  • A fresh template should be used each time you perform an import.
  • The Header row is required. Do not remove it.
  • Make sure to include all required fields.
  • Follow the field order of the template.
  • Optional fields may be removed from the template. If an optional field is not present, it will be skipped over.
  • The import file type must be CSV.

Importing Assignees ​

Assignees may also be imported into IntelliTrack via a CSV Import Template. It is available from the Import Assignees page. Select Home > Management> Assignees > Import Assignees to reach this page.

Important

When Assignee Auto-Numbering is ON the assignee import file must still contain a value for the Assignee ID when importing a new assignee for the import to process; however, the resulting imported assignees will still follow the auto-numbering schema. This means that the Assignee ID for the imported Assignees will be auto-numbered instead of using the Assignee ID value in the Auto Number field provided in the import file.

To import assignee data into a tenant, follow these guidelines:

  • Download the template.
  • Follow the field requirements and field order in the template.
  • Upload the template file (it is in .csv format).
  • An email will be sent to your inbox detailing the results of the import.

For best results:

  • A fresh template should be used each time you perform an import.
  • The Header row is required. Do not remove it.
  • Make sure to include all required fields.
  • Follow the field order of the template.
  • Optional fields may be removed from the template. If an optional field is not present, it will be skipped over.
  • The import file type must be CSV.
