FIFO & ADVANCED FIFO
10.12.1
INTRODUCTION
The First In/First Out (FIFO) features were created to further assist organisations in managing their assets more
effectively. FIFO was designed to even out asset usage, allowing devices with charging the maximum opportunity to
recharge. Therefore minimising downtime as much as possible.
NOTE:
FIFO and AFIFO cannot be used on the same locker system. However they can be used within the
same instance of Traka Web.
NOTE:
FIFO and AFIFO do not monitor charging of assets or battery levels, only which asset has been in
the system the longest, therefore having the most charge available.
10.12.2
STANDARD FIFO ON TRAKA WEB OVERVIEW
FIFO is a feature that allows the ability to automatically release the item that has been in the locker system the
longest, based on the idea that this would have the most charge available as it had been in the locker charging for the
longest time and to ensure that items are wear levelled.
For more in-depth information on Standard FIFO on Traka Web, please refer to UD0232 – Traka Web FIFO and
Advanced FIFO User Guide.
10.12.3
ADVANCED FIFO ON TRAKA WEB OVERVIEW
Advanced First In/ First Out (AFIFO) builds upon FIFO and allows the management of more than one type of asset in
the same locker, in the same logged-in session. For example, a user could take the Smartphone and Tablet that have
been in the locker the longest.
NOTE:
Advanced FIFO requires Traka Web, therefore cannot be used on a standalone Traka Touch.
For more in-depth information on Advanced FIFO on Traka Web, please refer to UD0232 – Traka Web FIFO and
Advanced FIFO User Guide.
