    Enter each individual piece of equipment you install in SecurityTrax. This allows you to easily transfer pieces to Technicians or Office Locations so your staff, Sales Reps, and Technicians always know what equipment you sell, how many of each piece is on hand, and where it's located. You can also create Equipment Packages (to be discussed in the next step).

    A spreadsheet of all pieces of your Equipment can be uploaded into SecurityTrax. Submit a SecurityTrax Ticket (Step 2 of the Quick Start Guide). Hourly rates will apply.
