Adding Assets

To add assets, subscriptions, locations, or people you always will press the round + button in the top right hand corner. In the menu that pops up, select Asset.

Asset Details

To add an optional image of your asset select the Choose File button in the image section.

Next it is required you select a category. If you have not setup any categories yet, go to the custom categories page to learn how to setup categories.

Fill out the rest of your asset details, the name column is the only other required field in this section. If you want to record the condition of your asset select the appropriate option from the Asset Condition dropdown.

Asset Acquisition

The acquisition section is where you record details about how you got the asset. First enter the type was it purchased, gifted, etc. Then you can record where you acquired it from, the date and price.

The salvage value is used for calculating depreciation. The salvage value is what the asset will be worth at the end of its useful life.

Component

Sometimes an asset is not a standalone item but a component that belongs to a larger asset. For example, you may be building a golf club piece by piece—the shaft is an asset on its own, but it also belongs to the complete Golf Club asset. Another example is a custom PC, where the motherboard is tracked as an asset but is also part of the overall PC asset. When this applies, check the box to mark the asset as a component of another asset.

Once checked a selector will become available so you can connect this asset to its parent asset.

The second checkbox labeled "Include Cost in Parent Asset" is used for including this asset's cost in the cost calculation for the parent asset.

Warranty

If this asset is under warranty you can record it here. Enter the name, cost, start date and end date of the warranty.
