Asset basics

Name, unique ID, category and status at a glance.

Manufacturer details

Capture manufacturer, type, model, serial number and year of manufacture.

Technical specifications

Power, capacity, dimensions and other technical characteristics.

Procurement details

Purchase date, supplier, price, warranty expiry and invoice number.

How to fill in the asset card

A step-by-step guide to filling in the asset card correctly

1

Fill in the asset basics

Enter the asset name, its unique ID, category and current status. The unique ID makes it easier to look up assets later and to run stocktakes.

2

Record manufacturer and technical data

Fill in the manufacturer, type, model and serial number fields along with the technical specifications. You’ll need this data to order spare parts and contact service providers.

3

Enter procurement details

Record the purchase date, the supplier, the price and the warranty expiry date. This is the basis for accounting and warranty claims.

4

Assign location and owner

Enter the asset’s current location (site, building, floor, room) and the responsible person. That way you always know where an asset is and who it belongs to.

5

Keep a maintenance history

After every maintenance, repair or inspection, log the event in the maintenance record. This is the machine’s life history — and you can present it to auditors too.

Why isn’t an Excel record enough?

There’s nothing wrong with an Excel spreadsheet — until you need to see real-time status, track warranties or run a stocktake

The Excel list is out of date

Asset records in Excel are always outdated — no one updates them when a machine is moved or scrapped.

No live status overview

You cannot tell which machine is running, which is under repair and which is waiting to be scrapped.

Scattered documentation

The manual is in the office, the warranty certificate is in a drawer, the repair history is with the technician. Nothing is in one place.

Missed warranties and inspections

On paper nobody warns you when a warranty expires or a mandatory inspection is due.
