If the same combinations of equipment types are needed on orders repeatedly, they can be packaged together. The list of equipment as a package can be included on any order without having to add each equipment type individually. Rental Kit List feature can facilitate to do this approach.
Rental Kit List is more than just a way to package traditional kits (e.g. Mini-flo Kit, Sun Gun Kit, etc.). It is a quick and easy way to add a list of equipment to an order. For example, all of the equipment in a studio or a truck rental can be packaged into a Rental Kit List. When pulled into an order, quantities can be changed, additional equipment can be added, or removed and pricing will be manipulated the same as a standard order.
A Rental Kit List can build in one of two ways: from the Inventory Menu or from the Rental Order Screen in Order Processing. In either case, the Rental Kit List is building from current equipment codes in listing. If there is something that you want to include in the kit that is not in the equipment table, create the Equipment Code first.
From the Inventory menu click on the Rental drop down tab and select Rental Kit List, or press its toolbar button. This screen could be filtered by Department, Location or both to see the available rental kits. If you leave these fields blank and press Refresh (F2) button, all rental kits in the inventory will be listed.
Note: In the Rental Kit List screen, rental kits can be added, edited or deleted. Double clicking on any record‘s row in this page will open the Rental Kit Detail screen and the content of each rental kit can be reviewed. Refer to Rental Kit Detail.
Code
Identify the Rental Kit with an alphanumeric code up to 10 characters in length.
Description
An alphanumeric description up to 50 characters in length is used to title the Kit. As several kits may be similar, it is suggested that the description used is a way to tell one kit from another. As with the equipment descriptions, something that can be easy to find and easily recognized by all members of the staff will be helpful.
Save Price
It is possible to charge a different rental price for a type of equipment when it used in a package as opposed to its regular rental price. Pricing adjustments can be made to either Daily or Weekly prices of the equipment codes used in the Rental Kit. Check the Save Price box to save the pricing structure of the Kit.
Department

Location
This field is allocated to specify the location of each rental kit.
Sort Order
By choosing different numbers in Sort Order field, within Rental Order Screen, rental kits will stand across the order list respectively.
