Service partners are contacts – technicians, rental companies, suppliers – who look after your equipment. You link existing contacts instead of creating duplicates.

Who can do this: team members with the inventory module and permission to edit items.

  1. Open the Service partners page (address /app/inventory/service-partners). It lists all partners with type, number of items, tags and e-mail. Filter by Type or Assigned item. Service partners
  2. Click Link contact, search and select an existing contact, and click Link contact. Link contact
  3. The partner page opens with contact details and Assigned inventory. Click Open contact record to jump to the contact. Partner detail
  4. Click Manage assignments. Optionally enter a Role label (e.g. "external revision"), tick the items this partner looks after and click Save assignments. Assign inventory

Good to know

  • One item can have several service partners; assigned partners show in the Service partners column of the inventory list.
  • The page is not yet linked in the menu – bookmark it.
  • Currently some partners are shown with their company name or as "Unnamed contact"; the e-mail address helps you identify them.
