Hello,

I am asking for help and suggestions; if you feel this particular forum is inappropriate for the question, please
advise which other would be better - thank you.

Our tech support department uses a paper-based notebook to record users dropping off and/or picking up computers & equipment. The manager has decided that since we support technology we should use technology more also, and have a self-service "kiosk" pc running Access for users to record the information currently captured on paper.

I am anxious to hear of successful implementations of this type, and hope to discuss further.

Thank you,

I would start by creating an inventory application so the user would be presented with a list of stuff he/she has. There are lots of table structures and sample apps for inventory management.

Once you have good control over your inventory, then consider adding more functionality.

Thanks for that. Using google is perhaps something I should have done first ...
