<p>The asset management features are for tracking <strong>durable items</strong> such as printers, laptops, etc. These items can be moved around, e.g. when borrowed (<a href="https://kb.ventipix.com/knowledge-base/asset-check-out/">asset check-out</a>) and returned (<a href="https://kb.ventipix.com/knowledge-base/asset-check-in/">asset check-in</a>). They may need repairs (<a href="https://kb.ventipix.com/knowledge-base/asset-maintenance/">asset maintenance</a>), can be placed on hold (<a href="https://kb.ventipix.com/knowledge-base/asset-reservation/">asset reservation</a>), and so on and so forth.</p>



<p>With asset tracking, you get to know about the conditions or statuses of your assets.</p>



<p>The inventory management features are for tracking <strong>consumable items</strong> that need replenishing such as printing papers, ink cartridges, batteries, etc. These items increase (<a href="https://kb.ventipix.com/knowledge-base/increasing-inventory/">inventory increments</a>) and decrease (<a href="https://kb.ventipix.com/knowledge-base/reducing-inventory/">inventory decrements</a>) in quantities. They can also be moved from one location to another (<a href="https://kb.ventipix.com/knowledge-base/transferring-inventory/">inventory transfers</a>). </p>



<p>In essence, inventory tracking is for anything that needs its quantities to be known.</p>



<p>On the platform Assets and Inventories are isolated from each other as items under them have different characteristics.</p>



<p>You basically need to determine how to classify the items you want to track and manage then use the appropriate<a href="https://kb.ventipix.com/knowledge-base/services/"> asset or inventory</a> management features.</p>
