Asset Actions

Restoring an Asset

You can restore an Archived asset at any time. However, a Deleted asset can only be restored from the Trash within 7 days before it is permanently removed.

You can restore an asset in three ways:

Restoring an Asset via the Dashboard

It's important to note that the Dashboard only displays assets with the Statuses of Available, In Use, and Maintenance, as these represent active assets in circulation.

In other words, assets marked as Archived or Deleted do not appear by default on the Dashboard. To view them, use the Filter drop-down at the top-right corner of the Dashboard to include assets from any status or state.

A table displaying asset statuses, with two assets marked as Archived (black label) and Deleted (red label). Both rows include a Restore button on the right, allowing users to bring back the assets to an active state.

Click the Restore button to open a modal that guides you through the recovery process.

Return an Asset via the Asset Details page

An asset can also be Recovered via the Asset Details page.

A section labeled Asset Details displaying an asset marked as Archived (black label). To the right, there are two buttons: Edit Asset (purple) and Restore (white with orange text), allowing users to modify or bring the asset back to an active state.

Similarly to the option in the Dashboard, clicking the Restore button opens a modal where you can configure settings before restoring the asset.

Restore Asset Modal

The Restore Asset modal provides a few options before restoring the asset.

Note

The Note field allows you to add any relevant details when restoring the asset. This can include information about the asset's condition or any other important notes.

A text input field labeled 'Note' containing the message: 'The asset is being restored to undergo maintenance before becoming available for use.' The input field has a blue outline.

Once the asset is restored from either an Archived or Deleted state, it becomes fully available for transfer to any applicable Status.
