Check-In HubCheck-In Hub makes warehouse returns faster and more accurate by letting you scan individual items and scan flightcase barcodes to open their contents — everything is globally checked in as you go. You’ll hear a beep and see instant feedback so you know what’s correct, missing, extra, or flagged. How it works: When you scan a flightcase barcode, the system “opens” that case in a temporary container view, showing you exactly what should be inside. Scan each individual item inside — each one is globally checked in immediately. If you scan an item that’s not expected in the container, the system will notify you so you can sort it out on the spot. Scan the same flightcase barcode again to “close” the case and clear the container view. Any loose items you scan outside a flightcase are globally checked in too — bulk barcodes are ignored automatically. If any item is in quarantine, it will be flagged during check-in so you don’t miss it. When you’re done, use the Complete button in Check-In Hub to finish the global batch and clear the list. If you just want to run Global Check-In and skip containers, click “Disable Containers” to keep it simple. To use it: Add all your flightcase barcodes in Settings so they’re recognised when scanned. Click Check-In Hub in the Hub Menu. Scan a flightcase barcode — the case “opens” and shows its expected contents. Scan each item inside — they’re globally checked in and marked off. You’ll be alerted if anything unexpected turns up. Scan the flightcase barcode again to “close” the case and clear that view. Any loose items you scan are globally checked in too — bulk barcodes are ignored. Use the Complete button to finish the batch and clear your global check in list. Click “Disable Containers” if you just want to do Global Check-In only. 💡 Why it’s useful: Check-In Hub keeps your returns smooth, fast, and accurate — so you never miss an item, and anything extra or in quarantine is caught before it hits the shelf.

Message HubMessage Hub pops up automatically when an Opportunity has a description — or you can open it manually under Actions. It displays the job’s Internal and External descriptions in a clear popup and plays a soft sound when it appears, so you don’t miss it. How it works: Internal Notes are for your team only — use them to leave instructions, updates, or reminders that won’t be seen by the client. External Notes are for updates you want to share with the client, like quick delivery details or changes they need to know about. If you don’t want Message Hub to pop up automatically when you land on an Opportunity, go to your Hub Settings and tick “Disable Popup on Landing.” To use it: Open Message Hub (it pops up automatically or you can open it under Actions). Choose Internal or External. Type your message and click Save — your note will be added directly to your Opportunity record. 💡 Why it’s useful: Message Hub makes sure no one misses key details — perfect for quick reminders that keep your team and clients clear and on the same page.

Shortages HubShortages Hub is designed to give you a clear list of any item shortages on a job, so you can check what’s short and organise extra kit with suppliers. It will also show any items that are short because they’re in quarantine, so you don’t miss anything that’s unavailable. How it works: Shortages Hub checks your Opportunity’s kit list and shows exactly what’s in short supply. It includes any items affected by quarantine, so you see the real availability. You can select items and copy the list or create an email request for suppliers — with sensible collection and return dates automatically applied. To use it: Make sure your Availability Period is set to Hour. Open the Opportunity. Look under the Actions section and click Shortages Hub. Wait a moment while it checks your availability. A pop-up will show any shortages — including items in quarantine. Select the items you want to copy or email, then choose to copy the list or create an email request directly. When you create an email, Shortages Hub automatically sets sensible collection and return dates for you: The collection date is normally set for the day before your job’s delivery — but weekends are excluded. So if your delivery is on a Saturday, Sunday, or first thing Monday, the collection date automatically moves back to Friday. The return date is normally set for the same day your kit is collected back in — unless it’s late afternoon, in which case it’s set for the next day. If it comes back late Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, the return date moves forward to Monday. 💡 Why it’s useful: Shortages Hub saves you time — you can deal with shortages quickly, automatically build supplier requests with the right dates, and keep your job on track.

Suppliers HubSuppliers Hub shows you all suppliers linked to your Current RMS Opportunity in a single list on the right-hand side, so you always have a quick visual reference.

Lets you mark activities as Complete by clicking the ✅ tick in the Pending Activities panel — or by right-clicking an activity in the Calendar view.

Hotel HubHotel Hub helps you manage crew accommodation directly from your Opportunity page. It shows a toggle “H” next to each resource, coloured green if a hotel is required and red if not — so you can see hotel needs at a glance. You can choose hotels, add booking references, and set check-in and check-out dates for each crew member — and it can even push these details straight to TeamTrack. How it works: Every crew resource on an Opportunity has an “H” toggle — switch it on for those needing a hotel stay. Once toggled, the system keeps track of who needs a hotel and shows them in the Hotel Hub view. The popup lets you assign hotel details, add references, and pick check-in/out dates for each person.

Backup HubBackup Hub keeps your jobs and kit lists safe by backing up your opportunities into a single JSON file saved straight to your Downloads folder. It shows real-time progress updates, logs each backup with a timestamp and job count, and even includes an offline viewer so you can browse jobs and scan barcodes without internet access. You can scan and record barcodes offline, then push them back to your live opportunity when you’re back online. How it works: Backs up either your current live opportunities or all opportunities into a single downloadable JSON file. Stores backups in your Downloads folder so you always have a copy you control. Lets you view backups offline, search kit lists, and scan barcodes without needing an internet connection. Tracks and logs every backup run, so you know when it last happened and how many jobs were included. Any barcodes you scan offline can be pushed back to your live Opportunity once you’re back online using Backup Hub in the main menu. The Offline Backup Hub is only for emergencies — when Current RMS or your internet is completely down. To use it: Open Backup Hub in the Hub menu (or Offline Backup Hub in Settings). Pick Live Backup, Full Backup, or set up an auto-schedule if you want backups to run automatically. Follow the progress updates and locate your JSON backup file in your Downloads folder.

Inspection HubInspection Hub guides you through fast, step-by-step LOLER equipment inspections directly in your browser. It pulls your inspection types from Current RMS automatically, so you always know exactly what needs checking. How it works: You must have a LOLER Inspection set up in Current RMS with the right inspection types assigned — the Hub uses this to run the test. When you scan or type a barcode, the Hub loads the inspection questions for that asset. For each step, mark it Pass or Fail — or hit the space bar to mark as Pass quickly and keep moving. When you’re done, just click Submit and your results go straight back to Current RMS. To use it: Click LOLER Inspection in the Hub menu.
