Check in items

You find the checkouts either on the dashboard (recent and overdue checkouts) or on the checkouts page, by selecting Checkouts from the main menu.

You can also go directly to an item that has been checked out and select the Activity tab, then Checkouts — or simply click Perform task, then Check in on the item's page.

Find the checkout you want to check in. Checkouts that are still out have a Check in button directly in the list — or open the checkout and click Check in at the top of its page.

In the check-in window, all items in the checkout are selected by default. If the checkout contains more than one item and you only want to check in some of them, un-check those you want to leave out and check in later (partial check-in). Use Select all / None to toggle the whole list at once.

Where the items go back

Under Put them back you decide where the items you are returning end up:

  • Usual places — each item goes back to its own home location. When everything you are checking in shares one home, the button names it, for example Back to Main Warehouse. Items with no home location recorded are left where they are, and the line underneath says how many.
  • One place — everything goes to a single location that you pick. Useful when a van is emptied into a receiving area to be sorted later.
  • Leave — nothing is moved. The items keep the location the check-out gave them, which is what Itefy did before this option existed.

The line under the buttons says exactly what will happen, and how many items it affects, before you check in.

These moves do not send a location-change notification to the person responsible for each item — a returned case would otherwise generate one message per item.

You can also add remarks to the check-in.

Click Check in to check in the selected items.

After a partial check-in, the checkout keeps the status checked out until every item is returned. Repeat the procedure until all items are checked in, and the checkout status changes to checked in.
