	Inventory actions for an employee
	Elaborate on the inventory actions possible for an employee

Rules for managing inventory items

- The list of possible actions is dynamic, and they change depending on the actual associations (assignment of phone lines to employees, to devices, etc.) in the inventory.

- All the actions are to be done in the client organizations and not from “my organizations” nor from “global inventory”.

- All new assignments or additions for items that are already linked to existing items (employees, lines, SIM, and IMEI that are already associated) will automatically be unassigned from the source in order to pursue the new assignments. This user guide will elaborate on the dependencies between inventory items.

Possible actions (assign/unassign) from the employee

Whether or not the employee has a phone line and/or SIM card and/or device assigned, here are the four inventory actions that will be available.

- Assign: The employee has no existing assignments. A SIM card and/or phone line and/or device can be assigned to her.

- Unassign: the employee has one, some, or all of the items SIM card, phone line, and device. We can unassign some of all of the items. This combination of inventory items is therefore a new “configuration”.

- Replace: an employee can be replaced by another one.

Lookup the employee (see also search functions) then click on one of the cells in the table to see the actions menu.
