Each consumable in AssetIT is tracked with its available quantity. When you check out a consumable, the system automatically reduces the quantity until the stock is depleted.

Consumables in AssetIT are treated as items that are assigned to users for use and not returned to the system. Once a consumable item is checked out (assigned to a user), it cannot be checked back into the system. This reflects the nature of consumables, which are typically items that are used up or expended during their lifecycle.

How to Check Out a Consumable

  1. Navigate to the Consumable Screen:

    • Locate the consumable you want to check out in the consumable list.
