Consumables

Consumables refer to IT and non-IT assets that are tracked in bulk and discarded after single use. Consumables are usually low-priced and allocated to teams in large quantities.

ServiceDesk Plus Cloud allows you to classify consumables into various product types, track their allocation history, and document vendor association from the application. You can maintain your inventory up-to-date when receiving or distributing consumables. This helps you track all inventory-related processes from a single location and avoid unreliable/incorrect inventory records.

You can configure consumable product types and products from Setup > Customization > Asset Management. The product types and products configured under Setup will be reflected while creating and tracking consumables. Click here to learn how to configure product types and products.

After configuring product types, you can add and track consumables from the Assets tab.
