Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about check-in/check-out workflows.

How does check-in/check-out work?
Users scan or search for equipment, then check it out by selecting their name or scanning their ID badge. The system records the time, date, and expected return. Check-in reverses the process and logs the return condition.
Can I set due dates for equipment?
Yes, every checkout can have an expected return date. The system sends automated reminders to users before the due date and alerts managers when equipment is overdue.
What happens if equipment is overdue?
Overdue equipment triggers notifications to both the user and their manager. You can configure escalation policies and automatic follow-up reminders at set intervals.
Is there a self-service kiosk mode?
Yes, you can set up a tablet or computer as a self-service kiosk where team members check equipment in and out using their PIN, badge, or QR code scan without manager approval.
Can I see who has what right now?
Absolutely. The dashboard shows a live view of all checked-out equipment, who has it, when it was taken, and when it's due back. Filter by user, location, or date range.
