Inward, allocate,
send for repair,
and get it back

Asset inward and location allocation, dispatch a component out for external repair and receive it back, issue spares against the job — every movement on one stock and ledger trail. So a part is never lost off the books while it's away, and the whole out-and-back is traceable. Cloud or on-premise, for manufacturers of every kind.

How it works

From inward to received-back
in five steps

A component out for repair follows the same disciplined flow as any stock movement — so a part is never quietly lost while it is away, and every step ties back to the machine in the asset register.

Asset inward
Book a new or returning asset or component into stock with date, qty and rate
Allocate location
Assign it to a plant, department or store bin so you know where it sits
Dispatch for repair
Send a component to an external repairer; the dispatch qty leaves stock
Issue spares
Spares used on the repair are issued against the job and posted to the ledger
Receive back
The repaired component returns against the same reference — full trail closed
01 — Asset Inward & Location Allocation

Know what you own —
and where it physically sits

Asset inward records a new or returning asset or component coming into stock against the register, with its date, quantity and rate. Location allocation then assigns it to where it actually is — a plant, a department, a store bin — so the register answers not just "what do we own" but "where is it". When a spare, a bought-in component or a repaired part lands, it is booked in and placed, and the stock report reflects that location straight away.

02 — Dispatch for External Repair

A part goes out to be fixed —
and stays on the books

When a component has to go to an outside repairer — a motor to be rewound, a gearbox to be rebuilt — you raise a dispatch entry against that vendor with the item, quantity and rate. The dispatch quantity leaves stock and the part shows as out for repair, so it is never quietly lost while it's away. The dispatch names which asset the component came off, so you always know that the spindle motor out at the rewinder belongs to CNC-VMC-04.

03 — Receive Back & Spare Issue

It comes back, spares and all —
on one connected record

When the repaired component returns, you receive it back against the same dispatch reference, so the out-and-back is one closed loop rather than two loose entries. Spares consumed on the repair are issued against the job from the spare store, so the spare stock reduces and the cost lands on the asset's maintenance history alongside the dispatch and receipt. The repair and the spares it used are one record — you can read exactly what went into fixing a machine, not reconstruct it from two systems.

04 — Stock & Ledger Trail

Every movement is a document —
the numbers always reconcile

Inward, location allocation, dispatch for repair, receipt back and spare issue each post to the shared stock engine, so the stock report and ledger always show current on-hand quantity, current location and the full history of every asset and component. There is nothing to reconcile at month-end because nothing moved without a document. It's the same trail whether you run Fast Maintenance in the cloud or on-premise, and it shares stock with maintenance inventory and purchase when licensed.

Everything asset inventory & repairs covers

Asset Inward

Book new or returning assets and components into stock against the register, with date, quantity and rate on every inward.

Location Allocation

Assign each asset or component to a plant, department or store bin, so the register tells you where everything physically sits.

Dispatch for Repair

Send a component to an external repairer with a dispatch entry — the dispatch quantity leaves stock, marked out for repair.

Receive from Repair

Receive the repaired component back against the same reference, closing the out-and-back loop so nothing is lost while away.

Spare Issue on Repair

Issue spares against the repair job so stock reduces and the cost lands on the asset's maintenance history, on one record.

Stock & Ledger Reports

A stock report with live quantity and location, plus a ledger of every inward, dispatch, receipt and issue — always reconciled.

"Parts used to disappear at the repairer for months. Now a dispatch leaves stock and a receipt brings it back on the same reference — nothing is lost off the books while it's away, and the repair cost sits on the machine."

Asset inventory & repairs FAQs

What does asset inward and location allocation cover?

Asset inward records a new or returning asset or component coming into stock against the register, with its date, quantity and rate. Location allocation then assigns it to where it physically sits — a plant, department or store bin — so you always know not just what you own but where it is, and the stock report reflects that location.

How do I dispatch a component out for external repair and receive it back?

When a part has to go to an outside repairer, you raise a dispatch entry against the party with the item, quantity and rate — the dispatch quantity leaves stock and the item shows as out for repair. When it returns you receive it back against the same reference, so the component is never lost off the books while it is away, and the whole out-and-back movement is one traceable trail.

Can I issue spares against a repair job?

Yes. Spares consumed during a repair are issued against the job from the spare store, so the spare stock reduces and the cost lands on the asset's maintenance history alongside the dispatch and receipt. The repair and the spares it used are one connected record, not two disconnected systems.

Does every repair movement leave a stock and ledger trail?

Yes. Inward, location allocation, dispatch for repair, receipt back and spare issue each post to the shared stock engine, so the stock report and ledger always show current on-hand quantity, location and the full history of every asset and component — no reconciling scattered registers at month-end.

Do I need the whole Fast Suite to run asset repairs?

No. Fast Maintenance runs standalone — asset inward, allocation, dispatch, receipt, spare issue and the stock ledger all work on their own. It shares stock with maintenance purchase and inventory when licensed, runs cloud or on-premise, and suits manufacturers of every kind across India and worldwide.
