If you have any equipment (bulk or serialized) coming back from multiple projects at the same time, we have a handy time-saving solution called the "Scan return" feature. It allows you to efficiently scan and return equipment without the need to open each project individually.

| Equipment Name | The name of the equipment you scanned |
| Serial Number | The serial number of the scanned equipment |
| Subproject | The subproject from which the equipment is booked for return |
| Project | The name of the main project from which the equipment is being returned |

Scan Returning Bulk Equipment
When scan returning bulk equipment, you now have the option to select the project you wish to return the bulk equipment from. Because bulk equipment uses a single QR code and is not uniquely identified, users must specify the project and the quantity being returned.
Scan Returning Serialized Equipment
When scanning a serialized equipment, because of it's unique properties, it will automatically target and return your specified equipment to the return status of the project.
