Congratulations on joining EZRentOut!
EZRentOut is a web based tool that will enable you to significantly reduce the workload of managing rentals, tracking equipment, and keeping your customers happy. You can also use our mobile apps (Android, iPhone/iPad) to scan labels to take actions.
Identifying Your Items
Identify what type of items you will track. There are 3 different types of items available:
[table caption=”” width=”100%” colwidth=”33%|33%|33%” colalign=”left|left|left”]
Assets, Asset Stock, Inventory
“- Rented out for a certain duration e.g. a wedding limo being rented out by James for 6 hours.”,”- Asset Stocks are similar to Assets and are also rented out for a certain duration.”,”- Inventory includes items that can be consumed/sold e.g. 10 bridesmaid bouquets or wedding cake sold to Sarah. “
“- Assets are tracked individually e.g Limo #1, Limo #2 and so on. Each Asset would be added as an individual entry so you know exactly where each of them is.”,”- Stock Assets are not tracked individually e.g. 100 foldable wedding chairs or 35 table sheets where individual tracking is unnecessary; you just want to keep track of how many are available and how many are rented out.”,”- You maintain a stock quantity e.g. 800 water bottles in the warehouse, 100 in the store.”
“- You rent out an asset to a customer e.g. Limo #1 rented/checked out to James.”,”- You rent out a particular quantity of an Asset Stock to a customer e.g. 100 wedding chairs rented out to an Event management company.”,”- You add inventory stock when you get the supplies and remove stock when you sell/consume them.”
“- No quantity is associated to assets since each asset is tracked individually.”,”- You maintain a stock quantity.”,” “

Note: Asset Stock and Inventory modules can be enabled/disabled from Settings ->Add Ons
Custom Fields: If the predefined set of fields for assets/inventory are not sufficient for you, you can add custom fields from Items -> Custom Attributes. Learn More.
Customers: Customers are individuals who rent out Assets or Asset Stocks, or consume/buy stock from inventory. Useful filters can be applied to get insights into a particular category of customers. You can also send emails and newsletters to the customers.
Orders: All rental and sales transactions are recorded as Orders. Say Evan wants to rent out a Limo, and wants to buy a crate of red wine, you will draft an order from Orders -> Add Order, and add both these items to it. You can then track its booking, rent out and return activities. You can also generate invoices for all orders.
Users: Users work with orders. Add Admins (having full access) or Staff Users (having limited access) from More -> Users -> Add new member. Access levels and Visibility can also be defined from your name at top right -> Company Settings -> Settings. You can run reports on how well every staff user is performing and can also assign orders to them.
Get Cozy – Add a few items: Add a few records to your account to get started. You can also add groups, documents, locations and vendors.

For example; if Location Tracking is important to you, have the location asked on rent out/check out from Settings -> Locations.
