Inventory System

WELCOME

Over the past few years, Chapter President’s have been completing an annual inventory on paper using a basic spreadsheet that has served its purpose so we can report our assets as accurate as possible to the IRS.  However, the time has come that we must rachet up our processes and become even more transparent and thus it’s time for a full fledged inventory system.  

To this end, you will find everything you need on this page to complete your Chapter’s asset inventory.  We know this first time it will be a LOT OF WORK … and probably some hiccups along the way … but once we get everything in the system the yearly audits and reporting will be much easier for everyone.

Take a look at the resources on this page and GOOD LUCK!

ASSET TAG LOCATIONS…

Try to find a good location that will not get rubbed off, picked at, or get dirty so you don’t have to replace it often/ever. Additionally, keep the location consistent for similar items so the yearly audit will be easier for your team. 

Below are some pictures for common locations, especially batteries, tools, & cords.
