Inventory statuses define the behaviour of items and whether the asset is eligible for transactions, transfers, requisitions or other actions and the result of documents. Inventory statuses are also linked to transaction types and return statuses.
This page is used to view the standard inventory statuses available in ToolHound. Additional inventory statuses can be customized using a combination of these six base options.
Fields on this tab include:
Inventory Status | Enter a unique inventory status description. Up to 60 characters. |
Color | Choose a color for the inventory status to make it stand out. |
Can Issue | The asset is eligible for issue and return transactions. Can be used in combination with In Transit and Can Transfer. |
In Transit | The asset has left one stocking point and is en route to another. Can be used in combination with Can Issue and Can Transfer. |
Can Transfer | Assets are candidates for transfer to another stocking point. To prevent inventory from being transferred, do not assign this flag. Can be used in combination with Can Issue and In Transit. |
Is Retired | The asset is no longer available for any action and is removed from service (lost, scrapped, damaged beyond repair, etc). Can't be used in combination with any other flag. |
Available for New | The asset is new into the system and available for issue and return transactions. Can be used in combination with Can Issue and Can Transfer. |
Is Issued | The asset has left a stocking point and is in the possession of an entity. Can be used in combination with Can Issue. |
Active | Active by default. Make inactive to prevent the use of this inventory status in future. |
