Asset Tracking

The features focus on getting assets into your TrackAbout System.

Asset Registration

Asset Classification Structure and Product Codes


These features give you the power to control the life cycle of your assets:

Use State Tracking - apply rules for how your assets must move throughout your processes

Sort Assets - a step to prepare assets for Filling. Can be used along with Dynamic Forms to enforce Inspections.

Sort Container - This is part of Palletization. Scan assets to associate them with a container/pallet.

Audits

TrackAbout provides mobile tools for conducting audits both internally and at customer locations

Customer Audit

TrackAbout provides a feature for visiting a customer's location and performing a physical audit of all assets on premises. Such an audit benefits both you and your customers in that everyone is assured that customer balances are accurate.

Internal Inventories

A common business practice is to periodically take an inventory of all of the assets that are in an internal location. Some users will do this every month and some every year and some just as needed.

Asset Families

Asset Families allow for alternatives grouping of products beyond the standard Asset Classifications. Asset Families can be used in support of Business rules to regulate actions such as Filling and Valve Use.

Valve_Tracking

TrackAbout clients who track cylinders and medical equipment also sometimes need rules pertaining to the valves used with those assets. TrackAbout provides some functionality to set rules about valves.

Make Pack

Some clients call these "Bundles", “Clusters”, or "Packs". Rather than scanning each individual asset each time this group moves, the 'Make Pack' feature can be used to group these assets together.

Fill Tracking

Fill Tracking allows you to follow your asset through their production phase. Whether the cycle is from dirty to clean, not ready to ready, empty to full, Fill Tracking can provide you with accountability and reporting along the way.

Asset Transfers

TrackAbout supports various actions within Core Tracking to capture information about assets moving from an internal location

Delivery/Return

This is the process of moving assets from internal locations to customer locations. TrackAbout supports two levels of Delivery functionality, the basic Delivery/Return is included in the Core Tracking Module. Proof of Delivery is a separate module that provided advanced capabilities to integrate the use of Orders from your accounting system.

Branch Transfer

This is the process of moving assets between internal locations. Again, as with Delivery, TrackAbout supports different levels of Branch Transfer functionality; with and without the use of Proof of Delivery.
