Once you have created Asset categories and Asset types, you are ready to add assets into HRWize by going to:
Facilities > Assets
Click on the 'Add' button. Then, add as much information as possible to uniquely identify the asset.
- Asset type - Select from the dropdown one of the Asset types you have created. This is a mandatory field.
- Asset name - Provide a meaningful descriptive name for the asset.
- Asset tag - Use the manufacturer's tag if there is one, or enter your own company asset tag ID if you wish.
- Serial number - Enter a unique serial identifier instead of an asset tag.
- Warranty expiry - This might be useful if you want to report assets with warranty running out in a specific time frame.
- Supplier - Who the asset was purchased from?
- Purchase date - When the asset was purchased?
- Purchase price - A useful field for reporting the value of all assets by type.
- PO number - May be needed when submitting a warranty claim.
- Condition - Enter something to describe the condition of the asset. E.g. New, Used, etc.
- Location - Use this to identify where the asset is located before it is checked out to an employee. E.g. Store 1, Box 4, etc.
- Owner - Select from the dropdown the employee who is responsible for all of the assets of this type.
- Risk/Impact/Probability of loss - Carry out a risk assessment of what would happen if this asset was lost. You can add text such as Low Medium High, Red Amber Green or number values such as a scale of 1 to 5.
- Comments - Add any additional comments to support the information added above.
You can add one or multiple lines to add additional assets in the same screen:
Click 'Submit' when you have entered all information for the asset(s).
