IntelliTrack® IT Assets User Guide ​

How to work with the IntelliTrack IT Assets bundle: adding and managing assets, user defined fields, custom page views, service contracts, RMAs, orders, insights, dashboards, subscriptions and exports.

Chapter 1 – Defining The IT Asset Bundle ​

Welcome to the IT Assets Bundle User Guide. In IntelliTrack®, a Bundle is a collection of workflows and features designed to support a specific set of asset tracking requirements. The IT Assets Bundle allows you to track IT Assets with an emphasis on your mobile device pool, which includes managing the repair process and service contracts. In the IT Assets Bundle, you will find features to fully manage not only IT Assets, but any other assets you wish to track.

In this Bundle, it is important to understand the difference between Assets and Items to effectively utilize the system. The following narrative serves to help you with these two definitions.

Assets ​

An asset is a useful or valuable object that has unique attributes and needs to be tracked by an organization. An asset is a unique instance of an item and may be identified by a unique serial number. Assets can inherit unique attributes from the item that it is tied to.

Items ​

An item is an article or unit that typically exists in multiple quantities and can be used, sold, or stored by an organization. Synonyms include Part Number, Component, or SKU. Items are typically considered a Parent of assets.

Chapter 2 – Asset Management ​

An organization’s assets are displayed on the Assets page, which is accessed from the Main Menu > Assets > Assets option. This page contains all assets that have been entered into IntelliTrack®.

Note

The maximum number of entries that a page can hold is 1000. Additional pages can be accessed from the lower right corner of the page.

Depending on the User’s Role, they may be able to view all assets in the organization or just the assets for the Sites they have been assigned to.

When the Assets page is launched, a “default” view is shown, which contains the following fields:

  • Asset Number
  • Serial Number
  • Status
  • Item Number
  • Description
  • Site
  • Location
  • Actions
    • View

This view, however, can be customized to fit your needs by adding or removing columns or incorporating filters.

Searching for An Asset ​

From the Home page, Users can conduct a Search for an Asset using any one of the following four fields:

  • Asset Number
  • Serial Number
  • Item Number
  • RMA Number

This is considered a “Quick” Search since it can be performed immediately upon logging into IntelliTrack®, thereby eliminating the need to launch the Assets page.

A Search from the Assets page can also be performed based on the columns that have been applied to the page.

Note

The Search option incorporates a “type ahead” feature, resulting in a return of Assets that contain the characters as they are being typed.

Adding An Asset ​

From the Assets page, select the Add button to launch the Add Asset page. At the Asset Details tab, proceed by completing the required fields, which are as follows:

  • Asset Number
  • Serial Number
  • Status
  • Item Number
  • Site
  • Location

Note

Selecting an Item Number from the drop-down list will automatically populate the Description and Manufacturer fields. In addition, if a Site has only one Location, it will be automatically populated.

After the required fields have been entered, you may elect to click on the Service Contract tab to associate a Contract Number to this Asset. To do so, select the valid contract from the drop-down list.

Note

In order to perform this action, the Service Contract must already exist in IntelliTrack®.

Important

In the IT Asset Bundle, the Asset Number and Serial Number are typically the same. The Asset Number can be unique; however, the Serial Number is required to submit a repair request.

Once all fields have been entered and the Service Contract has been selected, click on Save.

Adding Multiple Assets ​

If more than one Asset needs to be entered into IntelliTrack®, the User has multiple options to choose from, as detailed below.

Save & New ​

From the Add Asset page > Asset Details tab, proceed by completing the required fields, which are as follows:

  • Asset Number
  • Serial Number
  • Status
  • Item Number
  • Site
  • Location

Next, click the down arrow found to the right of the Save button and select the Save & New option. This will result in clearing the Add Asset page, thereby allowing for the addition of another Asset. This process can be followed repeatedly until the final Asset is ready to enter, at which time the Save button will be used to return to the Assets page.

Save & Clone ​

From the Add Asset page > Asset Details tab, proceed by completing the required fields, which are as follows:

  • Asset Number
  • Serial Number
  • Status
  • Item Number
  • Site
  • Location

Next, click the down arrow found to the right of the Save button and select the Save & Clone option. This will result in clearing the Asset Number, Serial Number, and Status fields only. The remaining fields will be retained, thereby allowing for a very efficient way to add multiple Assets that have the same Item Number as well as the same Site and Location.

The Save & Clone option can also be used for adding multiple Assets with a different Item Number to the same Site and Location by simply selecting the appropriate Item Number while retaining the Site and Location fields. This process can be followed repeatedly until the final Asset is ready to enter, at which time the Save button will be used to return to the Assets page.

Import ​

This function is found under the Main Menu > Assets > Import. Upon launching the Import page, you will see a list of Required Fields as well as Optional Fields.

Important

All the Required Fields are necessary when importing new assets; however, when updating existing Assets, while other fields may be modified, the only Required Field is the Asset Number.

To prepare the Assets for Import,

  1. Click on the Download Template button.
  2. A .CSV file will be downloaded which contains all the fields available to you.
  3. Complete the fields you wish to populate, keeping in mind those that are required.
  4. Save the file.
  5. Click the Browse button to search for the saved file.
  6. Once located, click the Upload File button.

After the import has been processed, you will receive an email notification that shows the status of the import. This email will contain .txt files with both good and bad results that will assist you with correcting any import failures that may have occurred.

Performing Bulk Changes ​

When changes are needed that affect multiple assets, you can perform a “Bulk” transaction vs. processing each change individually.

On the Assets page, you will find a checkbox to the far left of the page next to each individual Asset as well as one to the immediate left of the Asset Number column. These checkboxes are used to select those Assets that require a Bulk Change.

To choose multiple Assets:

  1. Check in each box to select the Asset.

    Note

    If all Assets require this change, click in the box next to Asset Number. This will automatically populate all Assets with a checkmark.

  2. When all Assets have been selected, click on the Bulk Changes button found in the upper right portion of the page.

  3. Select the change you wish to perform from the drop-down list, which contains several options. Two of the most common Bulk Changes are detailed below.

Change Location: Updating the location of Assets when they are reassigned to another Site is critical to data integrity. When changing Locations via the Bulk Changes feature, you will be prompted to select a new Site and Location, as seen below. Upon clicking on Apply, the records you have selected will be processed.

Bulk Changes - Change Location popup with Records to Move: 2 and the Site and Location drop-down lists

Retire: When Assets are no longer in use, you may use the Bulk Changes feature to Retire multiple Assets. As seen here, the number of Records involved in any Bulk Change is noted. In addition, a Comment can be entered.

Bulk Changes - Retire popup with Records to Retire: 2 and a Comment field

Important

Assets are not deleted from IntelliTrack® – they are Retired.

Viewing Asset Details ​

To see the details for a specific Asset, follow the steps below.

  1. Search for the Asset from either the Home page using the Quick Search feature or from the Assets page.
  2. If searching via the Home page, the View Asset page at the Asset Details tab will be displayed. If searching via the Assets page, click the View button under the Actions column to access the View Asset page.

The Asset Details will include, but are not limited to:

  • Asset Number
  • Serial Number
  • Status
  • Manufacturer
  • Item Number
  • Description
  • Item Groups
  • Site – to include the physical address.
  • Location

Additional information can be viewed by selecting from the available tabs found along the top portion of the page.

Performing Actions ​

Several Actions can be performed upon an Asset. These can be found on the View Asset > Asset Details tab to the far right of the page. Some of the options available are:

  • Edit: Launches the Edit Asset page where changes to the Asset can be made.
  • Create RMA: Opens the Create RMA page where a new repair request can be processed.
  • Change Location: Allows the User to change the Site and Location of an Asset.
  • Set Ownership: Allows the User to assign Ownership to the Asset.
  • Maintenance/Calibration: Allows for scheduling a Maintenance and/or Calibration Date.
  • Change Asset Number
  • Change Serial Number
  • Change Item Number
  • Change Service Contract
  • Retire

Note

The list of Actions available is based on the User’s Role. In addition, many Actions contain an optional Comments field.

Viewing Asset History ​

Throughout the lifecycle of an Asset, from the day of Procurement until End-of-Life, IntelliTrack® records an event for every Transaction that has occurred. This information can be found on the View Asset > Asset History tab.

Events are displayed by most recent and include the following information:

  • Transaction Date and Time
  • Transaction Description
  • Comments
  • User

This historical data provides total visibility to the actions taken against an Asset.

Adding Attachments ​

IntelliTrack® allows the User to add up to five attachments to Assets as well as Items, excluding .exe files. To add an attachment, follow these steps:

  1. Search for the Asset from either the Home page using the Quick Search feature or from the Assets page.
  2. If searching via the Home page, the View Asset page at the Asset Details tab will be displayed. If found via the Assets page, click the View button under the Actions column to access the View Asset page.
  3. At the Asset Details tab, choose the Edit option under Actions.
  4. At the Edit Asset page, click the Attachments tab.
  5. Click on Browse to locate the file and then click the Add button.
  6. The file chosen will then be listed under Asset Attachments by File Name and Description.
  7. When all attachments have been added, click on Save.

Note

Attachments can be Downloaded or Deleted by launching the Edit Asset page, clicking on the Attachments tab, and selecting from the two options found under Actions. Upon Downloading or Deleting the File, click on Save.

Chapter 3 – Asset User Defined Fields ​

Note

To work with Asset User Defined Fields, Administrator level access is required.

IntelliTrack® supports up to 25, fully customizable, User Defined Fields for an Asset. Using them requires three basic steps:

  1. Adding an Asset User Defined Field Group to the Tenant
  2. Adding an Asset User Defined Field to a User Defined Field Group
  3. Adding the Asset User Defined Field Group to an Asset

These steps are outlined below.

Step One: Adding An Asset User Defined Field Group ​

An Asset User Defined Field Group is used to group like Asset User Defined Fields together. Before you add an Asset User Defined Field, you must add a Group for it. To add an Asset User Defined Field Group, refer to the steps that follow.

Important

An Asset User Defined Field Group is required to add an Asset User Defined Field.

  1. Select Management > User Defined Fields > User Defined Field Groups.
  2. The User Defined Field Groups page appears.
  3. Click the Add button.
  4. The Add User Defined Field Group page appears.
  5. Name Field: Enter a Name for the User Defined Field Group.
  6. Entity: Click the drop-down arrow and select Asset since we are adding a User Defined Field Group for use with Assets.
  7. Display Order: The Display Order matters when you have more than one User Defined Field Group For Assets because it dictates the order that the Field Group appears in the Add/Edit Asset User Defined Fields tab. if this is the first User Defined Field Group that you are adding, enter 1.
  8. Click Save. You are returned to the User Defined Fields Group page. The new Asset User Defined Field Group has been added.

Step Two: Adding An Asset User Defined Field To A User Defined Field Group ​

An Asset User Defined Field is managed from the Asset User Defined Fields page. It must be part of an Asset User Defined Field Group, as detailed in Step One above.

Please refer to the steps that follow to add an Asset User Defined Field.

  1. Select Management > User Defined Fields > Asset User Defined Fields. The Asset User Defined Fields page appears.
  2. Click the Add button. The Add User Defined Field for Asset page appears.
  3. Name: Enter a Name for the User Defined Field.
  4. User Defined Field: A total of 25 Asset User Defined Fields are available. Use the drop-down list to select from the available User Defined Fields.
  5. Group: Click the drop-down arrow in this field and select the Asset User Defined Group that this Asset User Defined Field belongs to from the list that appears.
  6. Display Order: Dictates where this User Defined Field appears in the User Defined Field Group. It matters when you add more than one User Defined Field to this User Defined Field Group because the Display Order Number determines the placement of the User Defined Field inside this User Defined Field Group.
  7. Type: Select the Field Type for this field from the following options:
    1. String: The field will accept alphanumeric characters.
    2. Numeric: The field will accept numeric characters.
    3. DateTime: The field will accept a calendar date-time stamp.
    4. Boolean: The field may be toggled on or off (Yes / No).
    5. Date: The field will accept a calendar date.
  8. Click Save to add the Asset User Defined Field to the Asset User Defined Field Group.
  9. Repeat steps 1-8 until you have added all the Asset User Defined Fields to this Group.

Step Three: Adding The Asset User Defined Field To An Asset ​

Once the Asset User Defined Field is saved to an Asset User Defined Field Group, the User Defined Field Group must be added to the Item Number that the Asset will be associated with. This allows for the User Defined Fields tab to be displayed on the Add Asset and/or Edit Asset page for an Asset with this Item Number.

The Asset User Defined Field Group may be associated with the Item when it is added or edited via the Add Item page > User Defined Fields tab or the Edit Item page > User Defined Fields tab.

To add the Asset User Defined Field Group to an Item, please refer to the steps that follow.

  1. At the Add Item page, click the User Defined Fields tab to bring this section of the page to the front or Navigate to the Edit Item page for an Item that already exists.
  2. In the User Defined Fields Group field, click the drop-down arrow and select the Asset User Defined Field Group that you want to add to this Item.
  3. Click the Add button.
  4. The User Defined Field Group will appear onscreen. The fields will be read-only. This is because they are used for an Asset that becomes associated with this Item at the Add Asset page or the Edit Asset page.
  5. Repeat steps 1-4 until all Asset User Defined Field Groups are added to this Item.
  6. Click the Save button to save the Item. The Add Item page or the Edit Item page closes and you are returned to the Items page. The Asset User Defined Field Group(s) have been saved to this Item.

Step Four: Accessing The Asset User Defined Fields At The Asset ​

When an Item associated with an Asset has an Asset User Defined Field Group, the User Defined Fields tab will be available for the Asset at the Add Asset, Edit Asset, and View Asset pages.

Important

The Item associated with the asset MUST HAVE at least one Asset User Defined Field Group associated with it for the User Defined Fields tab to be visible for the Asset at the Add Asset, Edit Asset, and View Asset pages.

To access the Asset User Defined Fields, please refer to the steps that follow.

  1. Access the Assets page from Main Menu > Assets > Assets.
  2. Select the Add button to launch the Add Asset page.
  3. Enter the required information for the Asset at the Asset Details tab:
    1. Asset Number
    2. Serial Number
    3. Status
    4. Item Number: Click the drop-down arrow in the Item Number field and select the Item from the list that appears. The Description and Manufacturer will be automatically populated. If the Item has at least one Asset User Defined Fields Group added to it, the User Defined Fields tab will appear. It will contain the Asset User Defined Fields found in its Asset User Defined Field Group.
    5. Site
    6. Location
  4. Click the User Defined Fields tab to bring it to the front.
    1. The Asset User Defined Fields Group(s) that have been added to the Item Number appear.
    2. Enter information into the User Defined Fields as needed.
  5. Click the Save button.

Note

Chapter 5 – Service Contracts ​

IntelliTrack® facilitates the management of your Service Contracts by enabling you to see which contracts are nearing expiration, thereby ensuring that your assets are always covered for repair and service.

To access, go to Main Menu > Service Contracts > Service Contracts. The default page view will display the following information for those Contracts that are currently Active:

  • Contract Number
  • Start Date
  • End Date
  • Contract Holder
  • Contract Type
  • Invoice Cycle
  • Spare Pool Option
  • Number of Assets Covered: This is a hyperlink that, upon clicking, will launch the Assets page and display the list of covered Assets.

In addition, the Bar Chart will reflect the following day ranges for when those Active contracts will expire:

  • 30 Days or Less
  • 31-60 Days
  • 61-90 Days
  • 91-120 Days
  • Over 120 Days

You may also view Contracts whose expiration dates have ended by turning on the Expired toggle, which can be found above the Bar Chart. Doing so will add an Expired bar to the chart. Each of the bars contain the Number of Contracts associated with the day ranges and serve as hyperlinks to filter the Contract information.

Chapter 6 – RMA Management ​

Due to IntelliTrack®’s integration with multiple OEM portals, Users can submit repair requests and monitor them from the moment of creation to receipt by the Repair Depot to shipment following repair. This feature frees the User from having to access another portal for RMA Management.

Below please find more information on the RMA process.

Creating an RMA ​

To create a new RMA, follow the steps found below.

  1. Locate the Asset that requires a repair using the Quick Search feature from the Home page or from the Assets page.

  2. If found via the Home page, the View Asset page at the Asset Details tab will be displayed. If found via the Assets page, click the View button under the Actions column to launch the View Asset page.

  3. From the Asset Details tab, navigate to the RMA tab and then click on the Create RMA button or click the Create RMA option under the Actions Menu.

  4. This will launch the Create RMA page, which will identify the Repair Depot and will auto-populate the Serial Number as well as the Service Contract Number and Contract Expiration Date, if available. It will also populate the Contact Name, Email address, and the Return Site.

  5. Select from the drop-down list of Symptoms offered knowing that more than one can be chosen.

  6. The remaining fields are optional, although completing the Reason field, which is limited to 40 characters, is highly recommended as it will provide more information regarding the problems with the Asset.

  7. When completed to your satisfaction, click on the Create button to submit the RMA request.

    Create RMA page with the serial number, service contract and expiration date filled in, the Return Site and contact fields, the Symptoms and Reason fields, and the Create button

You will now see your newly created RMA on the RMA tab with a Status of Open.

Important

The Return Site can be modified, if necessary, by using the drop-down arrow to select from the list of Return Site options. If, however, the Return Site is pre-populated and “read only” due to re-provisioning requirements, the Return Site cannot be modified.

Viewing RMA Details ​

Once a repair request has been submitted, the User may wish to view the details for the RMA. To do so,

  1. From the View Asset > RMA tab, click on the three dots found under the Actions column.

    The three dots under the Actions column of the RMA tab

  2. A list of options will be displayed. Select View RMA Details.

    1. RMA Number
    2. Serial Number
    3. Repair Depot Location
    4. Site Address
    5. RMA Creator and Contact Information
    6. Symptoms
  4. This page will also be populated with the following Dates as the repair progresses:

    1. Date Created
    2. Received At Repair Depot
    3. Shipped From Repair Depot
    4. Shipped To Customer
    5. Replacement Shipped, if applicable
    6. Replacement Serial Number, if applicable
  5. Tracking Numbers, along with hyperlinks to the Carrier’s website, will also be contained on the RMA Details page.

Chapter 7 – Orders ​

IntelliTrack® provides “real-time” visibility to Orders that have been placed through Barcoding, Inc. This feature can be found at the Main Menu > Fulfillment > Orders page, where the User can:

  • Search for an Order Number
  • Add Filters
  • Export Data to a .CSV File
  • Create a Subscription

If you wish to view an individual order:

  • Click on the Details option found under the Actions column.

The Fulfillment Order Details page will contain detailed information about the Order, to include individual Item Numbers and Quantities Ordered as well as Fulfilled.

Chapter 8 – Insights ​

The system provides you with data insights at the Insights page (Main Menu > Insights) in the form of Reports and Dashboards. Access to these Insights may be Public, Private, or Shared among other Users within your Tenant. Each is identified with a unique icon.

On the Insights page, multiple Reports or Dashboards can be designated as a “Favorite” by clicking in the Star. When a “Favorite” is marked, a link to the Report or Dashboard is created on the Home page under My Favorite Insights. Adding these to the Home page allows for instant access without having to launch the Insights page.

In addition to marking these as a “Favorite”, a Report or Dashboard can also be subscribed to from the Insights page. To do so:

  • Launch the Report or Dashboard
  • Choose the Create Subscription option where you will identify the day(s) of the week or a specific date within the month to receive this report via email.

Note

Reports or Dashboards that are subscribed to will contain a green checkmark under the Subscribed column on the Insights page.

While the Insights page contains several Reports and Dashboards available to IntelliTrack® Users, there are a few that are invaluable for monitoring Asset Statuses and Repair Requests, as detailed below.

Assets by Status Dashboard ​

This Dashboard contains a summary of all Assets within your Tenant by Status. The following statuses are standard; however, Custom Statuses can be entered based on the needs of your organization.

  • In Field
  • In Transit
  • In Repair
  • In Spare Pool
  • In Stock

Three statuses in the IT Asset Bundle are specifically related to RMAs – In Field, In Transit, and In Repair, as described below:

  • In Field – An Asset that is Actively in Use.
  • In Transit – An Asset that has an Open RMA and is enroute to the Repair Depot.
  • In Repair – An Asset that has been received by the Repair Depot and is currently going through the repair process.

Important

When a repair is complete, the status of the Asset will be updated from In Repair to In Field and the Open RMA will be Closed. This is based on a Standard RMA Workflow.

RMA Summary Report ​

The RMA Summary Report contains a list of repair requests that, when launched, defaults to all Open RMAs; however, a Filter may be applied by RMA Status and Repair Depot.

The columns contained in this report will be populated as the repair progresses and are based on the RMA Workflow for that Item Number.

As detailed in the Custom Page View section of this Guide, these columns can be adjusted by using the Manage Columns feature to add and remove fields as desired.

In addition, a Search as well as Filters may be applied to the data. The report can then be exported to a .CSV file or a Subscription can be created.

RMAs In Transit Report ​

This report contains a list of Assets whose Status is currently In Transit.

Why is this important? Because, depending on the Repair Depot, RMA’s can be cancelled if the Asset has not been received in 30 days. This report, therefore, is extremely useful for monitoring repairs, as it serves as an alert that Assets have not yet reached the Repair Depot.

The report contains the details of the RMA, to include:

  • RMA Number
  • Serial Number
  • Item Number
  • Site Details

More importantly, it displays not only the RMA Created Date, but also the Cancelation Date, which is the date that the device needs to be received by the Repair Depot.

This report can be exported to a .CSV file or a Subscription can be created.

RMA Replacements Report ​

This report contains a list of RMAs for which a Replacement device needs to be shipped. This typically occurs when a Spare Pool is utilized to replenish a Tenant’s Asset following the creation of an RMA vs. waiting for the damaged device to be repaired. When the Replacement shipment has been processed, the RMA will be removed from the report.

Note

Depending on the RMA Workflow settings created for the Tenant, this Report may not be applicable.

Chapter 9 – Dashboards ​

Dashboards allow Users to customize their data into graphic displays. They contain one or more Widgets, which are built using KPIs (Key Performance Indicators), Optional Queries, and Output Data.

When a Dashboard is created, the Edit Widget Wizard steps you through three tabs, as follows:

  • 1 – Configuration: Allows you to

    • Select a Data Source
    • Choose the Type of Visualization (Bar, Card, Donut, Gauge, or Pie)
    • Choose the Widget Width
    • Enter a Title
    • See a Preview of the Widget
  • 2 – Input: At the Input tab, you

    • Select a Query
    • Add a Value to Filter

    Note

    Entering a Query on the Input tab is optional and can be bypassed.

  • 3 – Output: Allows you to

    • Select a Data View
