Inventory Procedures

Once a year, usually in the late Spring or right before school adjourns for the summer, perform a book/materials inventory and a equipment inventory.

--Here is a "Step-by-Step" list of activities that need to be completed to take a TPS inventory of materials and equipment.

--To get a detailed checklist of the procedures involved in Destiny inventory: Login to Destiny. Go to Back Office/Inventory.

Click on Destiny "Help" (in the upper right corner). Search for "Inventory". And "Review the Inventory Checklist".

--There are several ways to handle inventory scans. There are two recommended ways: (1) use the provided Pocket Scanners to create a Windows Notepad file (See instructions below) and (2) create a Windows Notepad file and scan in barcodes directly with your CCD scanner (ask Diane Leupold for instructions). It is not recommended that you enter inventory scans directly into Destiny.

--The instructions for using the current TPS Destiny system and scanners are below.

Uploading Scans from a Pocket Scanner (Scanner has a YELLOW activation button.)

--Remember that an important part of the inventory process is checking the Job Manager Reports that are generated after

you upload scans. Here is a sample of what those reports look like, what you need to watch for, and actions you need to take.

--One of the activities that must be completed by the end of the school year is an inventory of the Audiovisual and Portable Computer Equipment in your building. Here is a FAQ sheet to help answer commonly asked questions about equipment inventory.
