About asset approvals in Inspection Manager

Asset approvals allow property managers to review newly submitted assets before they are added to the asset register. This ensures asset data is accurate and prevents incorrect or duplicate entries.

When assets are submitted during inspections, they appear as “pending approval” until reviewed.

Note: Asset approvals are only available when the Asset Register feature is enabled for your office and inspection types. If you cannot see pending assets, check your Asset Register settings or contact your office manager.


View pending assets for a property

Pending assets are grouped under each property record. To begin reviewing assets, open the Assets section within the CMS.

  • Go to: Assets from the left-hand navigation menu

  • Use the available filters such as Manager, Suburb, Tenant, or Owner to locate a property if required

  • Locate the property in the results table

  • Click View (X) pending approval Asset(s)

  • The list of pending assets will expand below the property

  • Click the Eye icon to open the asset details

  • Confirm key fields such as:

    • Area

    • Asset Name

    • Manufacturer and Model

    • Barcode

    • Notes and images

  • Review any attached photos to verify the asset

After reviewing the asset details, choose the appropriate action.

  • Locate the asset in the expanded list

  • Select one of the following options:

    • Tick icon - Approve the asset and add it to the Asset Register

    • Cross icon - Reject the asset (confirmation required before deletion)
