One method may be as follows:
If you have the field service module, you could sell to the end user a
service contract (for a duration and a cost).
You could specify on the service contract the serial number of the unit
/ part qty duration and cost.
Move the unit into a warehouse or bin to identify it is on the customers
premises
Then sell the item as per normal if they decide to buy it - from that
warehouse / bin.

Subject: [Vantage] V8.0-Anyone do FG Inventory Rentals in Vantage
Is there anyone on this forum who currently handle, process Rentals on
finished good products out of their inventory. This is a new business
strategy that we are tasked to iron out using Vantage processes and
would appreciate any feedback.
We have to track the location/site of the Rental Parts,
We have to be able to "sell" the rental time on the part as a qty(?) on
the SO e.g 1 month vs. 3 months vs. 6 months without relieving inventory
We need to be able to exercise a Rent to own /actually sell the rented
part to the customer as a true inventory FG and record the cost of sale
at the time of actual sale of the part.
Thank you in advance for any feedback.
