AssetGather for JewelryRFID-based Solution for Quick and Accurate Inventorying

Jewelry businesses deal with expensive assets on a daily basis where the loss of even a single item can be expen-

sive. As a result Jewelers need to keep track of their assets for both accounting as well as insurance purposes.

However, this can be a challenge given current business practices. For example, it is common industry practice to

move all items from the display into vaults every night. In addition to this daily movement, items may be periodically

sent to shows or exhibitions. Every time assets are moved they need to be counted and inventoried. Since currently items are tagged

either with printed tags or bar-codes, each item will need to be manually handled to be counted. Often, this operation has to be

performed using employees and resources that could otherwise be used elsewhere. The current processes for inventorying jewelry are

manually intensive and hence can be expensive and prone to errors. Clearly, the industry needs a better solution and the AssetGather

for Jewelry Software offers an ideal solution to all the above problems.

Unlike bar codes, RFID tags do not

require line-of-sight in order to be

read. Additionally, RFID technology

can read multiple items in one scan

thereby saving considerable time

when taking inventory. For example,

using RFID tags on Jewelry, all items

in a display case can be read in one

shot. These features make RFID an AssetGather Software for Jewelry displaying

a missing item report
