Rent Inventory Items

Consignor's items could be 'rented out' but most of the time, rentals will be shop-owned items and 100% of the proceeds will be credited to the House Account.

A New Inventory Item can be designated as a Rental at time of entry or later. When adding a Rental or changing an Inventory Item to a Rental, check this box on the Inventory Record:

Sell a Rental Item

Press F5 to start the procedure for selling a rental item.

Select a Buyer from the List or press 'Close Without Choosing' to enter a Rental Sale without selecting a Buyer.

Click on Select from Item List

Rental Items are listed with a pink background for easier locating.

Select the Rental Item and press OK.

On the Invoice, if another item is added, the background color of Rental Item's line will be pink - a reminder to enter the Out/Return Dates. The Out Date is usually the current date and is auto-filled. The Return Date is the date the Item is to be returned. Both dates may be changed by typing new values or by using the drop-down calendars.

Complete the Invoice as for a New Sale.

Process Rental Returns

Select Rentals on the Main Menu.

Select Process Returns to view a list of Rentals that are currently out.

Check the items being returned and click OK to clear the Rental Record.

Inventory quantities will increase for the items returned.

Other selections in the Rental Menu allow reports that show Inventory or Sales Records for Rental items returned, not returned or past due.
