Inventory & assets

Every unit, one record — with live cost and margin.

Specs, photos, expenses, and documents live on a single unit record, so the cost and margin on every machine are always current — never a spreadsheet away.

  • Live cost and margin per unit
  • Meter history that survives a back-dated fix
  • Spec fields you define — or a prebuilt pack

One record

The unit is the hub. Everything hangs off it.

A machine's whole life — what it cost, what it earned, who rented it, what broke — lives on one record instead of being reassembled from four systems when you need an answer.

The unit record at the center, linked to Rentals, Work orders, Inspections, Quotes, Expenses, Warranty claims.

Because everything links back, the question 'what has this machine actually cost me?' is a page, not a project.
Meters & maintenance

Service that doesn't slip.

Log the readings a machine actually racks up, set the rule once, and let the work order open itself when it comes due.

Log the reading, then Set the rule once, then The work order opens.

Readings are a dated history, not one overwritten number — so a back-dated correction never wipes what was already there.
What changes

Where a unit's story actually lives.

Today: Specs in a spreadsheet, Photos in a phone, Expenses in the accounting file, Service history in a folder. Compared with On Calibrate: One unit record, Live cost and margin, Full service history, Documents attached.

What it does

Everything on the machine.

One record per unit

Specs, photos, expenses, and documents stay together instead of scattered across folders and spreadsheets.

Live per-unit cost & margin

Every expense logged against a unit updates its true cost, so you always know what a machine actually earns.

Meter history that can't be clobbered

Engine hours and odometer readings are kept as a dated history — the newest reading shows, so a back-dated correction never overwrites anything.

Photos from the field

Snap condition photos on your phone and they land straight on the record, with comments for the team and bulk download when you need to hand files off.

Fields you define

Add the attributes you track in-app — or toggle on a spec pack like crane or heavy equipment. No migration, no support ticket.

Everything ties back

Rentals, work orders, inspections, and quotes all hang off the unit, so its whole story is one click away.

Questions

Common questions about inventory.

What does dealer inventory software track?
In Calibrate, each unit is a single record carrying its specs, photos, documents, expenses, and meter readings, plus every rental, work order, inspection, and quote it has ever been on. Because expenses post against the unit, its true cost and margin stay current without a separate spreadsheet.
Can Calibrate open a work order when service comes due?
Yes. Set a preventive-maintenance schedule on the asset — a rule like every 250 hours or every 90 days — and when it comes due Calibrate can open the work order for you. When both an interval and a meter are set, the schedule comes due on whichever arrives first.
How do I log engine hours or an odometer reading?
From the Meters panel on the asset's overview, click Log reading and enter the value with the date it was read. Readings are kept as a history rather than a single overwritten number, so the newest reading by date is the one shown and a back-dated correction never destroys what was there. You can also update meters while logging time on a work order for that machine.
Can I add spec fields my equipment needs?
Yes, and an admin does it in-app. Define any custom field you want in Settings and it appears immediately, with no migration and no developer. For common equipment types you can also switch on a prebuilt field pack — crane, heavy equipment, trailers, or powersports — which adds a set of real spec fields to every unit at once.
Does it stop the same unit being sold twice?
Inventory is one live record rather than a spreadsheet copy, so when a unit's status changes it changes once and everyone sees it immediately. That is what removes the double-sold and double-listed problem that comes from a spreadsheet, a website, and two salespeople drifting apart.
Can I get photos off a phone and onto the unit?
Yes. Calibrate is mobile-friendly, so condition photos taken on a phone land straight on the unit record. You can leave comments on any photo for the team, and download a whole library as a zip when you need to hand files off.
