At the end of a rental period the Customer will return the rented Items which you will receive back in to rental stock. Creating an Items In record will allow you to record the return of the Item by the Customer. When you mark the Items In record as Accepted and save, rental stock levels will be updated.

The Status of the Agreement that governs a Reservation must be Active or No More Transactions and it must have been marked as OK and saved for you to be able to create Items In records from the Reservation. If an "Agreement not Valid" message appears when you try to create an Items In record, it will be because one or both of these conditions are not met. Items In records will not be created if an Agreement does not have any connected Items Out records that you have marked as Sent.

You can create Items In records using the following methods:

  1. You can create an Items In record from a Rental Reservation. This method is described below.

  2. You can create Items In records from an Agreement. Open the Agreement in a record window and select 'Items In' from the Create menu (Windows/macOS) or + menu (iOS/Android). This method allows you to create Items In records for all the Reservations that are connected to the Agreement and is described here.

  3. You can use the 'Generate Items In' Maintenance function to create Items In records from more than one Agreement. This function is described here.

The Status in the new record will be Created, so you will need to mark it as Accepted to update rental stock levels and, if the Reservation is to be charged on a fixed price basis, to allow charging to begin.
