Setting assets 'for sale'
Setting assets 'for sale'BRM understands that your assets will go through their own lifecycle, from ordered to sold. At every stage of the lifecycle the asset is said to have a status, which describes where it is in that cycle.
Details of the asset lifecycle can be found here
Setting assets to for sale
You'll see that setting an asset to for sale is a vital part of the lifecycle, so that you or your staff know that it can be sold, and at what price for. However its not a 'status' like the other stages of the lifecycle, but a 'flag' that you set.In this way you can carry on using your asset without fear of its 'for sale' attribute being overwritten as the bike is check-in or checked-out etc. For example, towards the end of your season, you may want to continue renting your assets, selling them to any customers (or general public) who ask.
