Record brand, model, serial number, product ID, tool type, and other identifying information.
Current location
Track the shop, truck, trailer, job site, shelf, cabinet, crew, or assigned employee.

| Identify the tool | Match a number to a separate list | Scan the QR label to open the record |
| Track location | Update a spreadsheet manually | Update the location anytime |
| Add photos | Store separately | Upload photos directly to the tool page |
| Track assignments | Use another column or list | Keep assignment notes with the tool |

| Track kit contents | Create another checklist | Add contents directly to the case record |
| Replace a damaged label | Create a new tag manually | Reprint the existing QR code |
