Asset: Overview

Jan 26, 2020

A business asset is an item of value owned by a company. Business assets span many categories. They can be physical, tangible goods, such as vehicles, real estate, computers, office furniture, and other fixtures, or intangible items, such as intellectual property.

Hawk HR allows an admin to manage and keep track of the company assets of the company via Asset module. Assets are assigned to the employees by the admin for a particular duration of time. It simplifies the process of managing the records of assigned/ returned assets by keeping a track of the assets. It also allows you to save information about your assets like

  • To whom asset is assigned?
  • What was the date when it was assigned?
  • Who assigned the asset?
  • What is the return date of a particular asset?

And other information like Procurement details, Next Service date, Life Stage, Code1/Code2, Vendor name, amount etc.
