Asset Catalogs Built for Structured, Intelligent Reporting

Create reusable asset types with custom fields, photos, and unique IDs. Link them directly into your reports and track where every item is used across your organization.

Standard Reports Don’t Structure Your Operational Assets

Vehicles, equipment, locations, and personnel are referenced daily in field reports — yet they’re often recorded inconsistently. Names vary. IDs are duplicated. Photos are missing.

Without a structured asset system, reporting data becomes fragmented and difficult to analyze. Asset Catalogs bring order, consistency, and traceability to your reporting workflows.

Build Structured Asset Types

Define unlimited catalog categories such as Vehicles, Equipment, Sites, or Personnel. Each type includes built-in system fields like Unique ID and photo support, along with fully customizable data fields

Easy Asset Management

Search, sort, and manage asset records from web or mobile. Update details, upload images, and archive items in seconds using intuitive table and panel views.

Dynamic Report Linking

Attach assets directly inside reports using the Catalog Reference field. Eliminate re-typing and ensure consistent, standardized asset data across submissions.

Configure Asset Types to Match Your Workflow

Every organization tracks different operational assets. Asset Catalogs let administrators define exactly what fields are required for each category.

Each catalog type includes:

Structure your data once — and reuse it everywhere.

Instant Access from the Catalog Menu

All catalog types appear under a centralized “Catalogs” heading in your main menu. Users can quickly navigate to the category they need and view assets in clean, searchable lists.

Features include:

Structure your data once — and reuse it everywhere.

Link Assets Directly in Your Forms

In the Report Designer, add a Catalog Reference field to allow users to select existing assets when completing a report.

This ensures:

Assets become part of your reporting intelligence — not just text entries.

Full Visibility into Asset Usage

Each catalog item displays the reports it’s linked to, giving administrators real traceability across the organization.

View:

Know exactly where every asset appears and how it’s being used.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Catalogs in 1st Reporting?

Catalogs allow your organization to define reusable asset types (like Vehicles, Equipment, Locations, and more) with structured fields and images. These assets can then be linked directly to reports to ensure consistent, searchable, and traceable data across your operations.

Can I customize the fields for each catalog type?

Yes. Every catalog type includes built-in system fields (Unique ID, Name, Photos, metadata) and fully customizable fields such as text, numbers, dates, dropdowns, multi-select, yes/no, and notes — so you can capture exactly the information your team needs.

Can catalog items include photos?

Absolutely. Every asset can have a primary photo and additional images. This is ideal for equipment, locations, vehicles, or any other asset where visual context matters.

How do I link assets to my reports?

When building a report template, simply add the Catalog Reference field. Users filling out a report can then select existing assets from the catalog instead of typing entries manually — ensuring accuracy and consistency.

Can I link more than one asset to a report?

Yes. The Catalog Reference field can be configured to allow single or multi-select, so you can attach one or many assets depending on your workflow needs.

Will I be able to see where an asset is used?

Yes. Each catalog item shows where it’s been referenced in reports, including which report template, who submitted it, and when. This gives you real traceability and insight into asset usage across your organization.

Is Catalogs available on mobile?

Yes. Catalogs are fully mobile-optimized. Users can search, view, and link assets directly from mobile devices when completing reports in the field.

Can I archive or delete assets?

Yes. Assets can be archived when they’re no longer needed. Archived items remain traceable in historical reports without cluttering active catalog lists.

Do I need admin access to create catalog types?

Typically, catalog creation and field configuration are controlled by administrators or users with appropriate permissions. Viewing and selecting assets in reports can be granted to role-based users according to your org’s settings.

Can I export asset data?

Exporting catalog data is planned for future phases — if this is a high priority for you, let us know so we can help prioritize based on customer demand.
