Whether your workforce is remote or works in the office, your organisation will have assets assigned to employees so they can undertake their role. Knowing who owned what, when and for how long, and a history of an asset's ownership improves transparency and accountability; reduces loss, and helps calculate depreciation where necessary.
The Inventory by Category Reporting feature allows you to create a report on the resources within your organisation, what type they fall under, and how many of each type you have allocated to your employees. You can also use this feature to download a CSV file of the data, enabling you to load the report into a CSV-supported program like Microsoft Excel.

So you have now viewed the assets assigned to a particular contractor, and you are now wondering, what next can I do. There are two recommendations I would make on this front, and they are:
- HR Employee File: Assets This feature allows you to view the details of when an employee received an assigned asset and, if applicable, when they returned the item.
- HR platform: Asset Register: The Asset Register feature allows you to create a list of assets owned by your organisation; specify the code, the category it falls under, the purchase amount, and the name of the item owner.
