Things

A thing’s page has its photos, its name and ID, its full path, and sections for what it tracks: Details, Paperwork and warranties, Value, Meters, Loans, Claims, Links, Schedules and History. Sections whose module is off in the location don’t show.

• Edit opens the fields in place. If someone else changed the same field since you opened it, Kept shows both values and asks: Keep mine, Keep theirs or Edit. Fields only one of you changed merge without asking.

• Brand: pick one of the account’s brands, or type a new name and choose Add “…”. Anyone who edits things can add one; owners and admins rename and merge them under Settings → Account → Brands.

• Actions has Move, Lend, Label, Split, Duplicate, Save as template, Mark seen, Not here, Change lifecycle (sold, given away, thrown out), Archive, Re-type, Convert to a room or spot, and Move to Trash.

• Archive is for a thing that’s still yours but put away: the winter tyres, the old phone in a drawer. Like a sold thing it leaves the lists of things in use and stops its reminders, and its page shows Archived with Unarchive beside it, one tap back into use. Filter lists and search by Archived to find them. Both can be undone.

• History lists every change with who made it; most changes can be undone from there or from the toast that follows them. Activity in the menu is the same across your locations. Each change is one sentence: “Put Galaxy S23 on the map in Office”, “Captured Bosch drill, 18 V from a photo”, “Made an insurance report for Home”. A field set for the first time shows its value; a map arrangement with more than five changes says how many, and Show lists them.

  

  

• Trash keeps trashed things for 30 days; members and above restore, admins delete for good.

• Passwords and codes (the Complete preset) are secret fields: hidden until someone allowed to reveals one, which is logged.

Viewers see the same page with no actions except Copy link.
