Items

RW Elephant allows you to create three different kinds of Items: Inventory Items, Conceptual Items, and Internal Items.

All Items have the following in common:

  • They all “live” in the Items section of your RW Elephant account. Get to them by navigating to the “Items” icon in the upper left corner of your browser window.
  • They all must have a name AND at least one Quantity Change Event.
  • You can add or delete any amount of your Items at any time using Quantity Change Events.
  • All Item availability is dependent on the Acquisition Date (within the Quantity Change Events) and the Off-the-Shelf and Restock Times of the Order.
  • Both Inventory Items and Conceptual Items can be either Taxable or Nontaxable.

Here are some things that are unique to Inventory Items:

  • Inventory Items are tangible goods that are rented (you can see and touch them).
  • Inventory Items get their pictures taken.

Here are some things that are unique to Conceptual Items:

  • Conceptual Items are intangible things that can be put on a rental Order like Delivery Fees, Styling Services, or Onsite Labor.
  • Conceptual Items will have a default quantity of “1” when added to Orders.

Here are some things that are unique to Internal Items:

  • Internal Items are like Rental Items, but they are invisible to your customers.
  • Internal Items would be things like toolboxes, ladders, cleaning supplies…things that you want to make sure your crew takes to the event but that you don’t need your customers to know about.
  • Internal Items do not have Rental Prices.
