Send a Custody Verification Request
Learn how to send a custody verification request
Admins and authorized users can send custody verification requests for assets that are currently assigned to users. A custody verification request asks the assignee to confirm whether they still have the asset and report its current condition.
Only users with the Admin Role or users with the Custody Verification Management permission can send custody verification requests.
An asset must be assigned to a user before custody verifications can be sent out. This confirms who is responsible for responding to the verification request.
