You can check out one or more items in the same checkout, and only avaiable items can be checked out.
A checkout can be created in multiple ways:
- From the dashboard, click New checkout from the shortcuts
- From the menu, select Checkouts, then New Checkout
- From a item page, click Perform task, then Check out
The last option will add the item right away, but when creating new checkout from the dashboard or menu, you will have to select one or more items to check out but clicking the Select items button.
Then, add some more information about the checkout:
Purpose of checkout (required)
Short text (3-4 words) describing what the checkout is related to.
On behalf of
Optionally, if the checkout is performed on behalf of another user, select that user here.
Checkout to location
Optionally, you can select a location where the items will be used for this checkout.
Additional information
Write some additional information about the checkout if needed.
Due time (required)
To make sure all checked out items are eventually checked in, set a due time for when you want the items to be checked in. The user resposible for the item and the user who performs the checkout (or the "on behalf of" user, if selected) will be notified if the checkout is overdue.
