FAQs
FAQs
Why can't I see the Assets option?
You may not have the necessary permissions to view assets, assets may not be shared with employees, or there may not be any assets associated to the teams you work in. Check with a manager or account admin that your permissions are accurate and the asset has been configured correctly.
Can I check out an asset that's already checked out?
No, only assets that have been returned and have the Available status can be checked out.
Can I return an asset on an employee's behalf?
If an employee doesn't mark an asset as returned via Tanda, the asset's availability can be reset.
To do so, click Edit Asset next to the relevant item and then Update Asset without changing any details.
