Add a custom field as default (required) while checkout

[mirso1703]

It would be good to have a custom filed as required while checking out an asset, let's say we have a location and I have a custom filed (sublocation) like a user who is using the device.

Now I have to checkout device and then go edit it and input the custom filed, it would be good that I can make this one of default values while checking it out.

Thank you

Please Consider mirso1703's request. we are also looking for the same option. If some custom fields made available while item checkin/checkout, it will be good to update important details such as temporary assignment, returnable, send to external users through snipe-it users and for custom reports based on these values.

I would also like to support this request.

I have custom location fields which I would like to update at checkout rather than having to go into an asset a second time to edit this information

I'm leaving my comment here as a mark of support.

Required fields break check-ins / check-outs, we'd like to use them to note down the ticket number associated with an action.

Okay, it looks like this issue or feature request might still be important. We'll re-open it for now. Thank you for letting us know!

Required fields break check-ins / check-outs’

I’m not sure what this means - can you elaborate?

[NMX-Drew]

I'd also like to +1 this request. We are looking to do roughly the same thing as mirso1703.

We'd like to track unit location at the same time as who is using it.

[ItsANoBrainer]

I would like to add and elaborate on this request:

When setting adding a field to a field set, there should be an option to have the field show up during check-in, and another option for during check-out.

The required option is already implemented.

Currently technicians have to edit the device afterwards and set the fields manually.

For example:
We have a General fieldset we apply to all models that includes TicketID, Condition, and Damages.

I would like all 3 of these fields to show up and be able to be changed from the check-in and check-out screens.

Let me know if I can elaborate or assist further, as this feature would greatly assist our workflow.

Edit: Can we change the title of this issue to something more relevant to what I described? IE: Add Ability to Update Custom Fields During Checkin/Checkout

This would be a revolutionary feature that will improve our processes by a ton. I support this feature request and will offer to pay money to have this developed.

This feature would greatly benefit when we're assigning equipment to staff members and being able to select from a Field which technician handled the equipment that was deployed.

2022 and will still support this feature to be added!

Yes please, this is the only feature stopping us from using Snipe-IT for a great tool tracking system.

I would love this feature as well!

This feature would greatly help our requirements too. We need to checkout to a department as well as physical location. We would like to be able to add a dept. field to the checkout, and thus see the total usage for each department.

We really need to be able to assign ticket-ID while checking out an item.
Currently we have to go edit the item manually and add the ticket-ID to the order number field in the asset. But then if the item gets checked back in and then out again to a different user, we have to remove the original ticket-ID and swap it with the new one. It's just not intuitive enough for us to use like this :(

My colleague just encountered a scenario with a custom field that would be super useful to have available on item checkout.

[tsrwebb]

I would also like put my comment here in support of this feature

[reycasper]

Any update on this features? We also need this one

[jcbneuner]

+1 on this request. We are needing to check out to specific users, then also assign that equipment to a physical office location and are currently unable to do that with options available.

[Ajtak]

I need this functionality too.

@snipe @uberbrady Please add this functionality on checkIN and Checkout Page. Its so very important. Its been years actually we are waiting for this feature

Whatever the custom field we create there should be option use that attribute on CheckIN and CheckOut form. So that it will avoid us to everytime we edit the asset manually again and agiain. after checkin or checkout
Custom Fields like Stockroom, Substate, Status, Sub locations, request number etc...
Example

There was feature request raised for same future feature, but its closed by bot
Please consider this to reopen or move the same Feature request
#4805

[Preethamdsz]

@snipe it would be a great help if you enable this feature on checkin and checkout page.

[Stuntryderturbo]

adding my commment in for support. I could like to add custom fields when checking in and checking out assets

[adamirxxx]

I require this feature also. Please include this for new version release.

[need4swede]

Would also like to have the option to have custom fields appear during check-in and check-out.

[amarkmagnite]

One more +1 for this feature, it would be really useful in our environment.

[ronenbjorkquist]

+1 for this

[adamirxxx]

@snipe could you provide any ETA for this feature?

[Ag-Cro]

Also requesting this feature, it needs to be a part of the check-in & check-out process.
Additionally - if we could apply the requirement for it to be updated EACH time an asset is checked in or out, regardless of the value being filled. This would be great for associating the action with the most recent ticket or job number. An example field

"Ticket number of latest change:"

[MasterCakeX5]

So I found a "dirty" workaround to enable our "room" field in checkin and checkout - but didnt manage to do it in bulk checkout:

In /var/www/html/snipeit/resources/views/hardware/ there are two files:

• checkin.blade.php
• checkout.blade.php

add thefollowing code wherever you want to have your custom field and replace "Room" with whatever the field name is and "_snipeit_room_4" with the name of the custom field in the database:

<!-- Room -->
<div class="form-group">
<label for="_snipeit_room_4" class="col-md-3 control-label">Room
</label>

<div class="col-md-8">
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="_snipeit_room_4" id="_snipeit_room_4"
value="{{ old('_snipeit_room_4', $asset->_snipeit_room_4) }}">
</div>
</div>

After that, in /var/www/html/snipeit/app/Http/Controllers/Assets there are two files:

• AssetCheckinController.php
• AssetCheckoutController.php

add the following code wherever it will work (I added it after $asset->location_id = $asset->rtd_location_id;
in Checkin and $asset = $this->updateAssetLocation($asset, $target); in Checkout) and replace "_snipeit_room_4" with the name of the custom field in the database:

if ($request->filled('_snipeit_room_4')) {
$asset->_snipeit_room_4 = $request->get('_snipeit_room_4');
}

Now the field will be shown both in checkin and in checkout and write the value into the database.

The upside: works at all
The downside: It is a messy manual thing and will be overwritten by any update

Please add a "real" way of having these things in the future, thanks!
