The Equipment Register is created within the Diary Module. Equipment is then visible to users as a Register when making Equipment Booking Requests. For example, a teacher wants to make a request to use a Projector at a certain date or time. First Add Projector as an Equipment item.
Diary Administrators can use this process to Add Equipment to the register, Edit Equipment or Delete Equipment.
Access: The minimum permissions required to access Manage Equipment can be found in the Diary module from within Config > Setup > Roles & Permissions.
