Assets Setup: Managing Kit Groups
Purpose Statement
Kit Group management allows administrators to reorganize, edit, or delete existing kit groups to keep kit organization accurate across inspections, inventory, and reporting workflows.
Background Information
Kit group maintenance is commonly needed when:
Kits are reassigned to different units or stations
Medical or operational standards change
Group names or descriptions need clarification
Old or unused groupings need to be removed
Keeping kit groups up to date ensures consistency and visibility across the system.
Required Permissions
Users must have access to Assets > Setup to manage kit groups. Depending on configuration, managing medication kit groups may also require a dedicated kit group management permission. If actions are unavailable, review role permissions.
