🏪 The More Branches You Have, the Harder Asset Management Becomes
In franchise and retail businesses with multiple branches, physical assets are the backbone of daily operations.
From POS systems, kiosks, refrigerators, and display monitors to tables, CCTV cameras, and even office laptops—
these assets are typically purchased by HQ and distributed across locations.
But as time goes on, the data in your system and the actual state of these assets begin to diverge.
Many companies believe that registering assets in their ERP system and handling accounting entries is enough.
But in reality, they keep running into the same recurring problems.
“The POS terminal at Branch 2 broke down, so we took one from Branch 1.”
In the ERP, the terminal still appears to be at Branch 1,
but in reality, it's now operating at Branch 2.
This kind of unsupervised movement is invisible to both HQ and other branches.
When Branch 1 later reports, “Our terminal is missing,”
it leads to confusion, internal disputes, and ultimately:
“We weren’t sure if it was broken, so we just bought a new one.”
When an asset is broken but still marked as "active" in the ERP,
maintenance or replacement requests never reach HQ.
The result? Branch staff request new equipment,
HQ has no data visibility and approves the purchase.
Eventually:
“The branch laptop disappeared. The person in charge has already left the company.”
Assets distributed to branches can be misused, taken home,
or even resold secondhand without being noticed.
One of our clients at SELLEASE discovered a laptop reported as lost
had simply been moved to another branch without any record.
This kind of situation opens the door to:
These challenges can’t be solved by just logging assets in ERP or using Excel checklists.
SELLEASE offers specialized features designed to manage physical assets across distributed branches.
With SELLEASE, each branch manager or employee can participate in an asset audit directly via mobile.
📸 These audits allow HQ to verify asset status and location with photographic proof,
instantly catching any fake entries or unapproved transfers.
Many branches purchase their own items—like an extra monitor or mini fridge—
but these assets never make it into the ERP.
SELLEASE lets you register such assets separately, labeled as “non-ERP assets,”
so that:
When a branch requests repairs or replacements, SELLEASE’s built-in service desk enables:
Every step is logged in the asset’s lifecycle, providing a full trail for:
Beyond basic inventory control, implementing structured asset management with SELLEASE drives real business impact:
By clearly understanding asset availability and condition,
you avoid unnecessary replacements and recover idle equipment.
Attaching asset labels and involving staff in audits
reinforces a mindset of ownership and responsibility,
reducing mishandling or negligence.
Photo audits, real-time tracking, and historical logs
allow you to detect and prevent unauthorized movements or misuse.
With photo evidence, asset lifecycle data, and full transaction records,
you’re always ready to meet internal or external audit requirements with confidence.
ERP is great for accounting—but it cannot track or control assets on the ground.
If your organization spans multiple branches, especially in retail or franchise operations,
asset management isn’t optional—it’s strategic.
SELLEASE enables this strategy through automation, real-world visibility, and an intuitive UX.
