Assets & Facilities
Assets & Facilities helps church admins keep an accountable record of church property, rooms, equipment, custody, and maintenance needs.
Use it for:
- Church facilities such as sanctuaries, halls, classrooms, offices, stores, outdoor spaces, and parking areas.
- Equipment such as sound systems, projectors, instruments, furniture, office tools, kitchen items, vehicles, and children ministry assets.
- Custody tracking when equipment is assigned to staff, volunteers, or members.
- Maintenance logging for inspections, repairs, incidents, check-outs, and service notes.
Where To Find It
Open the church admin workspace and go to:
Administration > Assets & Facilities
Only authorized church staff should manage this area because it may include financial values, equipment custody, and operational responsibility.
Recommended Setup
- Add facilities first.
- Add assets and connect each asset to a facility where possible.
- Add an asset tag for important equipment.
- Record serial numbers, purchase values, and service dates when available.
- Assign custodians only when one person is responsible for the item.
- Log repairs, inspections, incidents, and service activity instead of relying on memory.

Maintenance Logs
Use maintenance logs for:
- Inspections.
- Repairs.
- Incidents or damage.
- Check-out/check-in notes.
- General asset notes.
When a repair, incident, or maintenance record is open, the asset can be marked for maintenance so leaders know it needs attention before use.
Ministry Integrity Notes
Church property records should be accurate, but simple enough for real teams to maintain. Do not store unnecessary private information in asset notes. If an item is tied to finance records, keep the finance transaction in the Finance module and use Assets & Facilities for operational tracking.
