Companion for BisTrack — Equipment Rental

Rent This!

Rental fleet management that lives alongside BisTrack. Track serialized units and their meters, open agreements at the counter, take deposits, process returns, bill damage, schedule maintenance and run depreciation — with the order and the invoice landing in BisTrack automatically.

How it works

From an empty yard to an invoiced agreement.

Rent This! is the system of record for your fleet and your agreements. BisTrack stays the system of record for customers and finance — and the two are kept in step automatically through the agreement lifecycle, with no double entry anywhere.

1 The counter view

Everything out, at a glance.

The dashboard counts total, open and invoiced agreements, and warns you if the BisTrack defaults haven't been configured yet. It's a health check — the real work happens on the pages down the sidebar.

Categories, Items and Assets build the catalog. Agreements, Reservations and Maintenance run the day. Depreciation tracks book value. Every page respects the permissions set in Hook-Tech One.

2 The fleet

Items you rent. Assets you track.

An item is the catalog entry — "50hp tractor". An asset is one physical unit of it, with its own serial number, meter and service history. Bulk items skip the asset layer entirely and just count.

Rates hang off the item, not the asset, so every unit of the same item bills the same — by hour, day, week, four-week period or month, each with its own minimum charge and effective dates. Price changes are scheduled in advance rather than applied retroactively.

3 Opening an agreement

Find the customer. BisTrack already knows them.

Search BisTrack by code, name, contact or phone and attach the customer to the agreement — Rent This! never duplicates the customer book.

A customer on credit hold is a red blocker and the agreement cannot be opened. A credit warning is amber and informational, so the counter decides. Cash customers can carry a default walk-in account so only the contact details need typing.

4 The workspace

Lines, charges, payments and damage, in one place.

The Agreement Detail page is where the agreement is worked. Lines are the equipment: pick a serialized asset or a bulk quantity, set the period, rate and meter-out, and the asset flips to On Rent by itself.

Charges are what gets billed — a rental charge per line, plus ad-hoc damage, cleaning, fuel or adjustment charges drawn from the BisTrack manual order line types you've whitelisted. Each carries its own sync status, so a rejected charge is visible and re-sendable rather than lost.

5 Money in

Deposits and payments, reconciled with BisTrack.

Take a deposit, a balance payment or a refund from the counter. Deposits cross to BisTrack as order payments immediately; balance payments are applied to the invoice at completion. A cash-summary line shows total billed, total paid and balance owing.

Card payments run through your existing BisTrack card machine against the rental order — then a refresh in Rent This! pulls them back so the balance is right without anyone keying it twice.

6 Equipment back

Return the line, bill the difference.

Click Return on a line and record when it came back and the meter-in reading. Then choose how it bills: As Returned for the exact period it was out, Requested Period for the term you promised regardless, or Manual if you're making a judgement call.

Record the condition at the same time and a damage report is raised against the agreement. The line becomes Returned and the asset goes back to Available automatically. Whole agreement coming back in one trip? Mark all returned.

7 Damage

Photograph it in the yard. Bill it from the desk.

A damage report captures the description, severity, an estimated cost and as many photos as you need — taken on a phone in the yard through the Field flow, or uploaded from the desktop.

Converting a report to a charge adds a damage-type line to the agreement and links the two, so deleting the charge later puts the report back to Open. Photos are served through the app rather than by direct link, so they respect the same permissions everything else does.

8 Closing out

Complete once. BisTrack does the invoice.

Completion confirms nothing is still pending or failed, posts the final order update to BisTrack, calls BisTrack's own Complete operation to produce the invoice, and stores the returned invoice number back on the agreement.

From that point the agreement is read-only in Rent This! and any further change happens in BisTrack — one place, one number, no reconciliation. Print the agreement with your company header, terms, signature lines and an optional Code 128 barcode so a signed copy can be scanned straight back to the order.

Beyond the counter

Reservations, maintenance and depreciation — because a fleet is more than what's out today.

Pre-book without over-promising.

Reservations hold a unit for a future window, in a list or a Gantt-style calendar. Saving one checks for conflicts against rentals currently out, other reservations, and scheduled maintenance — and blocks the save with the window that collides rather than letting you promise a machine that's booked into the workshop.

When the customer arrives, Convert to Agreement pre-fills the editor from the reservation and links the two.

Service schedules that stop a rental.

Maintenance logs cover service, repairs and inspections on serialized units. Starting one flips the asset to In Maintenance and takes it off the rentable list until the work is complete — the workshop and the counter can't contradict each other.

Alerts fire before a unit's next service date or meter threshold, and again if a scheduled job hasn't been started or finished on time. Individual assets can be suppressed for units you maintain elsewhere.

Book value, tracked but never posted.

Straight-line or declining-balance depreciation per serialized unit, generating monthly entries from the in-service date, with accumulated depreciation, book value and percentage of useful life on one register.

Rent This! deliberately posts nothing to a general ledger. Each entry carries a Posted flag you tick once you've recorded the matching journal, and the GL report is what you hand the accountant. Bookkeeping for you, not an integration you have to trust.
