Drawn for this page. A shared cabinet stays usable when every kit has a count, an edition, a sign-out and a reorder point.

How to use it

  1. Start an inventory with a room, cabinet or kit code and the date of the count.
  2. Add a row for each item with its kind and edition, the count on hand and, for things you restock, the count to reorder at.
  3. When someone borrows a kit, enter their initials and the due date; clear them when it comes back.
  4. Mark condition, including old editions to retire, and the test security practices in place.
  5. Read what needs attention, print the list, and copy the inventory to a new date at the next count.

Keeping materials secure and current

Test security

Published test kits and record forms are copyrighted, secure materials. Professional testing standards ask that they be stored securely and used only by qualified staff, and publishers generally forbid photocopying record forms. Counting forms and signing out kits protects both the tests and the students they are used with.

Editions

When a test is revised, the older edition’s norms age and publishers set a time after which it should no longer be used for decisions. Marking a kit Retire keeps it from being picked up by mistake; follow the publisher’s directions on storage or disposal.

Two titles, one tracker

The catalog listed an assessment materials inventory tracker and a therapy materials inventory manager. They do the same job, so this page covers both: test kits and record forms sit beside therapy materials, devices and supplies. Staff initials are the only personal detail; everything stays in this browser.
