Dear Equipment Coordinators,

The programmers recently updated Equipster with the following fixes and enhancements:

Fixes:

1) Assets are no longer appearing multiple times when you search for Assets (Actions -> View or Update Assets)

2) Unassigned transactions are no longer staying on the homepage after being assigned.

Enhancements:

1)   On the Asset Information page, all the information required to complete an asset has been marked with an (*) asterisk. The required fields are Tag#, Description, Prime User, Building, Room No, and Inventoried Date.  Failure to complete these fields will result in an Incomplete Asset Record that remains on the home page. 

-  For all offsite locations, we have requested that the programmers add “Offsite” to the Building pulldown.  In the interim, for all offsite locations, please choose a building and then, in the "Location if offsite" box, type in as much clarifying information as possible. Once the programmers have added "Offsite" as a building choice we will send out another update. 

2)  Whenever any of the information on the Asset Information page is changed, Equipster automatically updates the Last Updated Date field with the most recent date.

 

Should you notice that any of the above are not appearing as stated, please contact me as soon as possible.

Thank you.

Kara Colannino
