9.6 Checking Out Inventory

The Check-Out screen allows you to check-out, or assign, inventory to customers for a specified length
of time. Checking out inventory decreases the quantity of that item that you have on-hand, but does not
remove the inventory from your database (since it is assumed the inventory will be checked back in). The
check-out function is useful if you lease equipment to customers or have a need to temporarily loan-out
inventory.

Note for WaspNest Users: This feature is not available for WaspNest Users. For information on the

You can only check-out inventory that has been added. This means that when you create an item, you
must add inventory (quantity) to it before you can check out that item to a customer. Remember that
inventory is the amount or quantity of an item. You can add inventory to an item either on the Add
Inventory
screen or by Receiving inventory.
