Tailor your PeeK’in account settings to suit your organisation

Our goal: to make lost property management easier for you. 💪

To achieve this, we aim to ensure your account settings match your operational reality as closely as possible.

How can you adapt them to your organisation?

Click on the option that applies to you and follow the steps!

Customise item registration to suit your processes

Set up internal notification emails

Register your discovery and storage locations

You may currently find and store lost property in several different areas.

PeeK’in lets you personalise both the discovery and storage locations according to how things are set up at your site.


Discovery Locations

To add, edit, or delete a discovery location:

  1. Go to the “Settings” tab

  2. Scroll to the “Items Registration” section

  3. Then look for: “Where do you most often find lost items?”

Add a discovery location

Click “+ Add location”

  • Enter the name of the location (e.g. Room, Restaurant, Reception, Vehicle, etc.)

Add a reference (if needed)

If a reference is required for the location:

  • Enter the label in the “Reference label” field

  • Tick “Reference required” if you want this field to be mandatory when selecting that location

Example:
If you often find items in rooms and you have multiple rooms:

  • Name = “Room”

  • Reference label = “Room number”

  • Reference required = “Yes”

So when logging a new item, the team member selects “Room” as the discovery location and then adds the specific room number (e.g. 102).

This works for vehicles too:

  • Name = “Vehicle”

  • Reference label = “Registration number”

Or for Restaurant, Meeting Room, etc. — if you have several of them!

Edit a discovery location

Click on the text field or the pencil icon to edit.

Delete a discovery location

Click the cross at the end of the row to delete it.

Change the order of discovery locations

Hover over the grey area with the two arrows at the start of the row, then drag and drop to re-order.

To make logging easier, the first item on the list will be suggested by default when registering a new object.

  2. Scroll to the “Item Registration” section

  3. Then look for: “Where do you store found items?”

Add a storage location

Click “+ Add location”

  3. Scroll to the section “Would you like to include a personalised message in your parcels?”
