Feature Request : Checkout Consumable to Asset #1538

Open dahiya81 opened 8 years ago

dahiya81 commented 8 years ago

Dear Sir/Madam,

It will be great to link the consumable to the Assest so better tracking can be done .

For that matter Accessories to asset also.. Keyboard and mouse associated with a PC. In the case of assembled PC, it can be Mother board,CPU etc..

dahiya81 commented 8 years ago

how to link can u guide me on that

pmsudhi commented 8 years ago

For Consumables - example could be Ink toner for the printer. if multiple printers are available i can track which printer is using the consumables.

For Accessories : While adding/checking out accessories, i will choose the associated Asset like we do with License. This will help to track the item as an single unit.

SylentBobNJ commented 8 years ago

I like the consumables -> printer linking, that would make tracking usage much easier!

Rhaelyx commented 7 years ago

I'm also liking this idea. I originally thought this was the way to go but was mistaken.

DannyHolyoake-zz commented 7 years ago

Seconding this.

I would've loved to use the consumables section to manage printer toner purchases. Not being able to check consumables out to assets is a roadblock to that.

MarijkeCornelis commented 7 years ago

For consumables we don't find it very easy to use for our workplace inventory. The idea is great, but if we have like 100 studs en we give our students 10. Remaining is 90 but if we wanted to add a quantity then we have to add it to the 100. Why not update 90?

faxesystem commented 6 years ago

This would also be a nice addition. So we could checkout a toner to a certain printer (asset). So at the end of a year one could see how much toner has been used by a certain printer / department.

Thank you for your awesome work,

Faxe

Yes my staley stalebot this is still relevant. ;)

Okay, it looks like this issue or feature request might still be important. We'll re-open it for now. Thank you for letting us know!

Of course is still relevant. ;)

This is the only feature keeping me from using Snipe-IT.

Danteba commented 5 years ago

This is the only feature keeping me from using Snipe-IT !

chemnic commented 5 years ago

I just don't use the consumables feature. I treat all printer cartridges as assets, and then assign them to printer assets. The consumables is very confusing and limited.

But Snipe-IT is too cool to not use it just for that. :)

jwalker55 commented 5 years ago

Watch me. lol

SylentBobNJ commented 5 years ago

I treat all printer cartridges as assets,

Yikes, sorry. This just shows how much we need this feature.

chemnic commented 5 years ago

It really works very well for me. But it would be great to see this feature working.

Peppershade commented 5 years ago

Seems like this one is still going on and this would be a ideal feature since i want to keep track on the consumables. I could make a user for every printer but this can be done better.

tpreston77 commented 5 years ago

+1 to bump the topic. Also, the ability to check back in consumables would be great in the event of a mistaken check out.

devilsmed98 commented 5 years ago

I would also like to add that I have been using Snipe-IT for a couple months now and love it for tracking assets. This would really complete the printer experience if I could checkout consumable ink cartridges to each printer. I don't know why it hasn't happened since I have seen the issue up since 2015. Seems like a high demand issue.

apizz commented 5 years ago

It's sad to me that this is still a thing!

If implemented, when a consumable is assigned to an asset and that asset is assigned to a user, the user should also be auto populated as the assigned user for the consumable.

diegob-ahc commented 5 years ago

I would like to Checkout consumables to Assets, It can be used in so many cases like checking out toner, batteries for equipment, etc.

snipe commented 5 years ago

It's sad to me that this is still a thing!

We welcome your pull request!

apizz commented 5 years ago

There's another complicating layer to this request. If any consumable can be assigned to an asset (and therefore consumed), that consumable has to be associated with one or more asset models in order to ensure an incorrect toner cartridge can't be assigned to the wrong printer, for example.

This functionality is currently built in to printmaster (which we've been using for a few years now) and wondering given this is also written in PHP and has a GNU General Public License if its code could be borrowed/incorporated to this end.

@snipe we're a hosted customer and we'd like to know if you have a plan to add this functionality in the near future.

Thanks for your answer.

I think consumables, accessories, and components should each be assignable to locations, assets, or users. This would create the biggest flexibility. We have use cases for all of the scenarios.

NordminEng commented 4 years ago

+1 This would be a great feature to implement if possible. Checking out consumables (toner) to the coppiers (assets), as well as less common things like checking out cat6 cable (by the foot) to a department.

CDanaher commented 4 years ago

+1, I was very disappointed today to find this is not how it works. This would make managing the toner to go with printers (or even asset models) so much easier.

IMS-IT-Subscriptions commented 4 years ago

Still wanted and still needed. so here's my +1

hexagonzo commented 4 years ago

i would also love to see this implementation! for now you can assign it to the user managin this thing and then add hostname/printer name in the notes when you checkout toner...

TheAtelier commented 4 years ago

I would also like that feature to be added. +1

berilslv commented 4 years ago

keeping this up. +1 Printers eat cartridges!
