Objects & Assets

Track rental properties, vehicles, equipment, and other business assets with full lifecycle management.

INFO

The objects module is optional. Enable it in Company > Features if you don't see it in the navigation.

Overview

The objects module is designed for businesses that manage physical assets — particularly rental companies, property managers, and equipment rental services. Each object represents an asset you own or manage.

Object types

Type	Use case
Property	Rental apartments, offices, commercial spaces
Vehicle	Cars, trucks, vans, construction vehicles
Machine	Industrial equipment, tools, generators
Other	Any other asset type

Object statuses

Status	Description
Available	Ready to be rented or used
Rented	Currently rented to a customer
Inactive	Not available (maintenance, retired)

Creating an object

1. Go to Objects > New Object
2. Fill in:
   • Name — A clear identifier (e.g., "Apartment 3B" or "Excavator CAT 320")
   • Type — Property, Vehicle, Machine, or Other
   • Status — Available, Rented, or Inactive
   • Description — Details about the asset
3. Click Save

Object detail page

The detail page shows:

• Asset information and type
• Current status
• WOZ history (for Properties) — annual WOZ values used in the Box 3 tax calculation
• Linked contracts
• Rental history
• Associated invoices

Contract summary header

Above the contracts list, a summary header gives you a quick read on the object's contractual state:

• Total contracts linked to this object
• Signed contracts: how many have been fully signed
• Monthly active total: combined monthly value of all active contracts, normalised from mixed-frequency agreements (weekly, quarterly, yearly)

WOZ history (Property objects)

For objects with type Property, the detail page includes a WOZ history section. WOZ values (Waardering Onroerende Zaken) are the municipality-assessed property values used in Dutch Box 3 tax calculations.

• View annual WOZ values per year.
• Add new values by entering the year and the WOZ value assigned by the municipality.
• Box 3 uses the WOZ value with peildatum 1 January. Enter the value that applies to the start of the tax year.
• If no values are entered yet, the section shows an empty state prompting you to add the first one.

Contract signing status

Each contract row in the object detail page now shows a signing status badge alongside the active/paused badge. The colour follows the same map used on the contract detail page:

• Signed (green): all parties have signed
• Partially signed (blue): some parties have signed, others pending
• Sent (yellow): the signing invite has been sent, no signatures yet
• Expired or Terminated (red): the signing request is no longer valid

Fully signed contracts show a small eye icon that opens an inline preview of the signed document, so you can read the completed contract without leaving the property page.

Legacy contracts created before the e-signing feature was added do not show a signing badge. The system detects legacy contracts the same way as on the contract detail page: contracts must have signing parties, a template, or signing content to show a badge.

Linking objects to contracts and invoices

Objects integrate with other MyCompanyDesk features:

• Contracts — Create a rental contract for an object, specifying the tenant (customer) and terms
• Invoices — Invoices can be flagged as rental invoices and linked to objects
• Recurring invoices — Set up automatic monthly rent invoicing per object

Filtering

Filter your objects by:

• Type — Property, Vehicle, Machine, Other
• Status — Available, Rented, Inactive
• Search — Find by name or description

Bulk actions

• Change status — Update availability in bulk
• Archive — Move to archive
• Delete — Remove objects

Tips

• Use the status filter to quickly see which assets are available for rent
• Link every rental invoice to its object for complete financial tracking per asset
• Set up contracts with recurrence for automatic rent invoicing
• Check the object metrics at the top of the page for availability overview
