Have an employee who\u2019s responsible for managing the maintenance of your store\u2019s equipment? Now there\u2019s a new user role called Maintenance to help make their job easier and reduce confusion among other staff.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

An employee in the Maintenance user role will see a list of inventory currently in maintenance, be able to add items to maintenance, and return them back into the availability listing.<\/p>\n

Adding an Item to Maintenance<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the maintenance tab, search for a serialized item and click the arrow to the right of the item you want to put into maintenance. That will immediately take it out of availability and put it into maintenance.<\/p>\n

\"Adding<\/a><\/p>\n

Returning an Item From Maintenance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once the user logs in, they\u2019ll see the list of serialized items in maintenance and all scheduled maintenance due. They can easily add notes, return the item to service, add metering and price notes, etc.<\/p>\n

\"Maintenance<\/a><\/p>\n

Just click on the maintenance wrench on the left side of the screen, make the necessary notes, and return each item to service.<\/p>\n

In order to use all the new maintenance features, you\u2019ll need to add someone in the maintenance user role. Do that by using the Admin > People > Employees menu. You\u2019ll find the Maintenance tab in Admin > Inventory > Maintenance.<\/p>\n

If you like what you see, we\u2019ll give you another 14 days with your own site free to ensure you\u2019re getting the most out of Rental Essentials before you start paying.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
