Why combine invoices with asset management?

Clubs aren’t just websites and memberships — they own assets and issue invoices. Nets, seat boxes, pole rollers, shelter, litter pickers, lifejackets, scales, weigh slings and tablets for results all need tracking and maintenance. Clubnest connects your billing with your asset register so finance, coaching and safeguarding work from the same source of truth. You’ll know what was purchased, which programme it supports, who checked it out, and when it’s due back.

  • Create VAT-aware invoices and receipts with your branding.
  • Register assets, set locations, conditions and service schedules.
  • Generate QR labels for rapid check-out and check-in.
  • Maintenance, calibration and safety checks logged to audit.
  • Usage analytics, depreciation and stock alerts.

Built for volunteer-led clubs

Simple, safe workflows: scan a QR, choose Check Out, assign to a coach, session or kit. When it returns, scan again to mark Back In and capture its condition. If anything is missing or damaged, you have the logs, dates and names to resolve it fairly.

Everything you need for billing & stock control

Invoices & Receipts

Create professional invoices for memberships, coaching, venue hire and sponsorships. Include line items, VAT rates, discounts and notes. Send by email with payment links and automatically attach branded PDFs.

  • Multiple VAT schemes & zero-rate where applicable
  • Paid/Part-paid/Overdue statuses
  • CSV export for accounting

Asset Register

Catalogue coaching and safety gear with serials, purchase info, supplier, warranty, depreciation and photos. Assign to locations (container, venue, coach van) and set minimum stock levels for consumables.

  • Locations & custody history
  • Service & calibration schedules
  • Depreciation (straight line)

QR Check-In/Out

Generate QR labels for each asset or kit. Scan with a phone to check out to a person, session or location, then scan again to check back in with condition notes and photos if needed.

  • No app required (secure web view)
  • Defect logging & hold state
  • Bulk actions for entire kits

Equipment Kits

Bundle items into reusable kits (e.g., “Junior Coaching Kit A”). Check out a whole kit to a coach or course, track missing pieces on return, and auto-replenish consumables from stock.

  • Packing lists & return checks
  • Low-stock triggers for bait/hooks/line
  • Swap-out suggestions for damaged items

Purchasing & Reorder

Raise purchase requests, record supplier quotes and convert to invoices. Set reorder points and preferred suppliers so stock never surprises you on coaching day.

  • Average cost tracking
  • Grant/project tagging for audit
  • Back-order & lead-time notes

Reports & Exports

Real-time views for finance and coaching leads: overdue invoices, aging debtors, asset valuation, usage rates, service due, loss rate and cost per session. Export clean CSVs and branded PDFs.

  • CSV for accountants & funders
  • Depreciation & write-off logs
  • Audit trail by user & action

Professional invoices that reconcile cleanly

Whether you charge for venue hire, coaching blocks, sponsorship, equipment hire or bespoke programmes, invoicing should be quick and consistent. Use templates, add line items with VAT or zero-rate, and send branded PDFs automatically. Receipts are issued on payment and statements can be generated for debtors.

  • Sequential invoice numbers and custom prefixes per programme
  • Partial payments and credit notes with full history
  • Attach supporting documents (purchase order, risk assessment)

Built for partnerships and grants

Tag invoices and purchases to projects (e.g., “Junior Pathway 2026”). Export spend vs. budget and show utilisation of funded assets over time. This transparency helps you maintain grants and attract new sponsors.

  • Project/Grant codes on invoices and assets
  • Evidence pack export: photos, logs, attendance
  • Contact & organisation records with GDPR-friendly fields

QR labels: fast, accurate, accountable

Each asset gets a unique QR linked to its record. Scan on any smartphone to open the secure check-in/out view. You’ll see the item name, current custodian, last known location and condition. Checking out prompts for assignee (coach/user), session/course, expected return date and optional notes; checking in captures condition, missing parts and defect photos. Every scan writes to the audit trail.

  • Printable QR sheets (A4) and label-printer layouts
  • Offline cache for poor-signal venues (syncs later)
  • Role-gated visibility: coaches see their kits; admins see all

Coaching kits that just work

A junior session needs the same essentials every time. Build reusable kits — e.g., “Coaching Kit A” (whip rigs, disgorger, plummets, hand gel, wipes, mat, sling, scales, lifejacket, tablet). The packing list prints with QR squares for each item. On return, scan through in minutes; any missing or damaged pieces trigger a replenishment task and an optional invoice for replacement where appropriate.

  • Auto-deduct consumables and prompt to reorder
  • Substitute rules when items are out for service
  • Per-kit service cycles (e.g., scales calibration every 6 months)

Stock control without the spreadsheet burden

Consumables (hooks, line, float rubbers, wipes, first-aid items) have reorder points to avoid last-minute scrambles. See on-hand, reserved, and committed quantities for upcoming courses or matches. When stock hits minimum, raise a purchase request to your preferred supplier and attach the delivery to the stock location.

  • Per-location quantities and transfers
  • Average cost (moving) and landed-cost notes
  • Expiry dates for perishable items; FEFO issue

Maintenance, safety and compliance

Some gear demands checks: lifejackets, scales, first aid kits and electrical items. Assign service intervals, create tasks automatically and block check-out if overdue. Log repairs and costs against the asset so you can decide whether to service or replace.

  • Service due dashboards and email reminders
  • Attach certificates, PAT records and inspector notes
  • Hold/Quarantine state for unsafe equipment

Works with the rest of Clubnest

Invoices & Assets are part of your wider platform: Orders & Enquiries Hub, Website Builder and Permit & Ticket Management. Bookings can reserve kits automatically; venue pages list available equipment; receipts and grant reports pull in usage logs and photos without extra admin.

Bookings

Assign kits to sessions; check out on arrival; return at close with quick scan.

Permits

Bundle equipment hire on tickets (e.g., lifejacket) and reconcile income.

Comms

Auto-notify coaches of reservations; email low-stock summaries weekly.

Numbers that help you make decisions

See which programmes consume the most equipment; track usage per kit; calculate cost per participant; and identify items that sit idle. With depreciation and repair logs, you can plan purchases confidently and justify budgets to committees, funders and sponsors.

Valuation & Depreciation

Asset value over time, write-off recommendations, and replacement forecasts.

Utilisation

Minutes in use vs. total availability; busiest coaches and venues.

Security, GDPR & safeguarding

Clubnest limits personal data in public views and secures sensitive records with role-based access. Invoices, asset histories and defect notes are encrypted at rest and in transit. Every action — from raising an invoice to returning a kit — is written to a tamper-evident audit trail with user, date and IP metadata.

  • Granular roles for finance, coaches and equipment leads
  • Subject Access Request & data portability exports
  • Privacy-safe QR views with minimal data

Accessible by design

Clear contrast, readable type and keyboard-friendly tables make stocktakes and invoice reviews fast even on smaller screens. Print views are clean and economical on ink.

Frequently asked questions

Do we need special scanners for QR codes?
No. Any modern smartphone works. The QR opens a secure web view with check-out/in actions and the minimum data required for the task.
Can we track consumables separately from assets?
Yes. Durable assets (e.g., scales) and consumables (e.g., hooks) are different record types. Consumables support reorder points, suppliers and batch/expiry where relevant.
Can invoices link to assets or projects?
Absolutely. Link line items to assets or project codes to keep grant reporting clean and reconcile purchases against specific programmes.
What happens if a kit comes back with missing items?
The return flow records shortages and damage, creates a task to replenish or repair, and (optionally) generates an invoice or note for the responsible party according to your policy.
