Add an Equipment Type

Assigning types to equipment is useful in organizing your inventory.

To add an equipment type:

  1. Click in the toolbar to display the Administration menu.
  2. In the Learning section, click Equipment.
  3. Click Add/Edit Equipment Type.
  4. In the Type field, enter the name of the new type (for example, Laptop Accessories).
  5. In the Sort Order field, enter a number that will determine where the type appears in the Type drop-down list on the Add New Equipment screen.

    For example, enter 1 if you want the new type to be the first type listed in the drop-down list.

    You cannot duplicate Sort Order numbers. If necessary, go to the list of types lower on the screen and edit their sort orders to accommodate the sort order of the new type.

  6. Click Save.
