[dahiya81]

Dear Sir/Madam,

It will be great to link the consumable to the Assest so better tracking can be done .

For that matter Accessories to asset also.. Keyboard and mouse associated with a PC. In the case of assembled PC, it can be Mother board,CPU etc..

how to link can u guide me on that

[pmsudhi]

For Consumables - example could be Ink toner for the printer. if multiple printers are available i can track which printer is using the consumables.

For Accessories : While adding/checking out accessories, i will choose the associated Asset like we do with License. This will help to track the item as an single unit.

I like the consumables -> printer linking, that would make tracking usage much easier!

I'm also liking this idea. I originally thought this was the way to go but was mistaken.

Seconding this.

I would've loved to use the consumables section to manage printer toner purchases. Not being able to check consumables out to assets is a roadblock to that.

For consumables we don't find it very easy to use for our workplace inventory.
The idea is great, but if we have like 100 studs en we give our students 10.
Remaining is 90 but if we wanted to add a quantity then we have to add it to the 100.
Why not update 90?

This would also be a nice addition. So we could checkout a toner to a certain printer (asset). So at the end of a year one could see how much toner has been used by a certain printer / department.

Thank you for your awesome work,
