Rules and Restrictions
-
Only Unassigned assets can be assigned to a branch using this method
-
Assets currently located at the warehouse cannot be assigned directly
-
Warehouse assets must be shipped separately using the Ship & Assign function from the Company Assets page
-
🚚 Reminder: If you need to move an asset from the warehouse to an office, first ship it using Ship & Assign—then it will be assigned automatically once shipped.
Best Practices
-
Assign assets in logical groups based on office needs (e.g., desks, monitors, accessories)
-
Use the optional Assignment Note to describe the purpose (e.g., "Office setup for Q2 expansion")
-
Always double-check the assigned date to keep audit trails accurate
