Link an item to a production

đź”´ StageStock

An item is linked to a production when you check it out for that production. From then on, the production appears in the item's History and in the Production filter in Advanced Search.

Check it out to a production

  1. On Inventory > Search and Check Out, check the item and click Check Out.
  2. Under For, choose Production and pick the show. The list holds the StageStock productions of the person you're checking it out to.
  3. Fill in the rest and click Checkout. When the show is over, check the item back in.

Open the item and look at History to see the production listed. Find items used in a past production shows how to search for them later.

Tag items by production instead

To connect items to a show without checking them out, for example while you're getting your inventory uploaded, add a Description Tag to each item, such as show: A Christmas Carol. You'll need the Manage (add/edit) tag permission for the category.

  • Type the show name in the regular search box, or
  • Use Advanced Search and enter the tag under Description Tags.

Tags are whatever you decide to type, and they're searchable across your inventory. They don't create checkout history, so they work best as a way to organize stock you haven't checked out yet.
