Each item you add to Scanlily can have a set of attributes - also known as “fields.” Attributes can be anything that describes the item. This might be a Standard attribute that Scanlily provides, like “Quantity” or “Model Number”. Or it could be a custom attribute you create for your needs, such as “Aisle Number”. There are also a variety of special attributes that do more than just store data. This video gets into all of that.

Taken together, Scanlily Alerts and Flags can help immensely with asset management. They allow you to reactively stay on top of necessary actions, such as maintenance. The system does the monitoring work for you, freeing up time and reducing worries so you can focus on less mundane tasks. For inventory management: Let Scanlily tell you when to restock items that have fallen below a certain quantity. For equipment management: Enable your staff and customers to flag items as broken or needing repair. Receive an alert if something requires your attention.

The Attachments area allows you to attach photos of the item, notes and documents. But it also serves as a running commentary on the item and, for multi-user subscribers, as collaborative tool for users to comment on items.
