One QR label for every asset — inventory with a single scan

Every department has a different spreadsheet, and none is current

Assets move rooms or change users without anyone updating the file, so hundreds of differences appear during the next inventory round. One working record for each asset. Location, user and condition changes are recorded from the label so authorized staff work with the same information.

Year-end inventory takes weeks

Teams carry printed sheets from room to room, compare asset codes by eye, write notes and enter them again later — creating errors at every step. One scan completes one asset check. Staff scan labels by phone while the system matches each asset and updates the inventory progress.

Nobody remembers the history of a device

How often was it repaired, who used it and is it still under warranty? The answers are scattered across email and people's memories. The asset lifecycle is available from one scan. Assignment, repair and warranty information stays with the record opened from the label instead of relying on one person's memory.

Each asset receives a unique record and tag

The record can contain a code, name, images, description, category, location, assigned user, status, value, purchase date and optional warranty or depreciation details.

Visibility controls what happens after scanning

An asset can be limited to administrators, the assigned user or workspace members, or exposed as a public view. A QR label does not automatically make all internal information public.

Locations and categories keep the list structured

Organize assets by category and by a location hierarchy such as office and floor or factory and production area, then filter the list by the structure used in daily work.

An inventory sheet freezes the checking scope

Choose a location or the whole workspace when creating an inventory round. Ninecheck records the expected asset list so later movements do not silently change that round's original scope.

The scan confirms identity, while staff confirm reality

Scanning finds the matching asset. The checker still records whether it is available, damaged or lost and can add a note before the inventory sheet is completed and locked.

Example: checking a company laptop

LAP-HN-023 · Dell Latitude 7440 · Accounting · Hanoi office / Floor 5 — Unique Ninecheck asset tag: LAP-HN-023 — The scan opens the matching asset record. An authorized checker confirms its actual condition and adds it to the current inventory result.

Standardize the asset code format

Use a pattern that remains stable, such as LAP-HN-023 or TOOL-FACTORY-A-018. Do not reuse a retired code for a different item.

Clean the Excel file before importing

Remove duplicate rows, normalize names and confirm asset codes, locations and assigned users. Importing an untidy file only moves the same confusion into a new system.

Define categories and locations first

Agree on a structure people understand in daily work. Avoid many nearly identical categories or location names that make filtering and inventory difficult.

Assign roles and viewing permissions

Decide who can manage assets, run inventory and view individual records. Use public visibility only for fields that are safe to show to anyone with the label.

Choose a label that suits the environment

Office equipment, outdoor tools and factory machines need different adhesive, surface protection and label sizes. Keep the QR away from curves, heat, friction and removable covers.

Write one inventory rule for everyone

Define how staff mark available, damaged or lost items, what evidence to include in notes and who resolves location or user differences.

Pilot with one area before a full rollout

Import a small group, print and scan real labels, complete one inventory sheet and review the export. Fix the process before labeling the entire organization.

Complete asset records

Keep the name, code, images, department, assigned user, value and warranty details for an asset in one record.

Bulk QR label printing

Create unique QR labels for many assets at once and export them in a format ready for decal printing.

Inventory by phone

Open an inventory round, scan each label and record whether the asset is present, missing, damaged or in the wrong location.

Assignment and return

Record who receives an asset and when it is returned, making responsibility easier to verify as staff change.

Damage and maintenance records

Scan the label to open the correct record and report an issue at the device, with repair information kept alongside the asset.

Automatic reminders

Track warranty deadlines, planned maintenance and depreciation dates so the responsible team can act on time.

Role-based permissions

Give finance, IT, administration and employees the viewing and editing access appropriate to their work.

Reports and Excel export

Summarize inventory results by department, condition or value and export Excel files for review or accounting.

Import the asset list

Import an existing Excel file or add assets individually with their name, code, category, department, assigned user and warranty.

Print and attach QR labels

Ninecheck creates a unique QR label for every asset so you can print in bulk and attach it to equipment, furniture or tools.

Scan to view and update

Authorized staff scan a label to view the record, confirm its location and user, and record changes at the asset.

Run inventory rounds

Start a round for a selected area, scan while the system matches each asset, then review differences and export the result.

Corporate offices

Manage laptops, monitors, furniture and meeting-room equipment, including where each item is and who currently holds it.

IT departments

Follow equipment from intake through assignment, return, repair, warranty and retirement in one continuous history.

Factories and warehouses

Organize machines and tools by area, check condition on site and keep the next maintenance date easy to find.

Schools

Track laboratory equipment, projectors and classroom furniture by room and record which department is responsible for each item.

Hospitals and clinics

Keep equipment records, current locations, warranty dates and inspection schedules available to authorized staff.

Retail and F&B chains

Manage assets across several branches in one system while running a separate inventory round at each location.
