The slot I need is shown occupied but the wheel is empty.

The old tyre was never removed in the app. Open that asset and remove it, then fit the new one.

Can I fit a tyre to a market vehicle?

Yes, as long as the vehicle exists under Vehicles with a layout. Set Ownership on the asset to show who owns the tyre.

Fit a tyre to a vehicle position

You will have the tyre marked Installed on a named position of a vehicle, with the odometer at fitting recorded so its life on the road can be measured later.

Open NShine ERP All docs

Fitting is the move from In Store to Installed. You pick the vehicle, the slot on its axle diagram and, where the form asks for it, the odometer reading at the time. From then on the vehicle profile shows the tyre on that wheel and the asset record shows the vehicle.

The same steps apply to a battery or any other asset with a position, though most non-tyre assets use a single slot.

Before You Start

The asset exists under Vehicles › Tyre/Asset Tracking with Status In Store.
The vehicle has a position layout chosen under Other layouts on its record. Without one there are no slots to fit to.
The slot is free. If a worn tyre is still recorded there, remove it first.
You have the vehicle’s current odometer reading from the dashboard.

Steps

Open Vehicles › Tyre/Asset Tracking and find the asset. Filter by Status In Store or search the Serial Number.
Open the asset and choose the fit or assign action.
Pick the Vehicle. The vehicle’s layout diagram appears with its rows and slots.
Click the slot the tyre is going onto. Slots already holding an Installed asset are shown occupied.
Enter the odometer reading at fitting, where the form asks for it. This is the starting point for the kilometres this tyre runs.
Confirm. Status changes to Installed, Vehicle is filled in and, on the first fitting ever, First Fitted is set.
Open the vehicle profile’s Tyre/Asset Tracking tab and check the tyre sits on the right wheel.

Fields on the fitting dialog

Field	What to enter	Required
Vehicle	The vehicle receiving the tyre	Yes
Position	A slot on the vehicle’s layout diagram	Yes
Odometer at fitting	The vehicle’s reading today, in km	Recommended, where shown
Date	Date of fitting	Yes
Notes	Workshop, reason, pressure set	No

What This Changes

The asset row shows Status Installed and the Vehicle; First Fitted is set if this is its first fitting.
The vehicle profile’s Tyre/Asset Tracking tab shows the tyre on its position.
The slot on the layout is now occupied and cannot take another asset until this one is removed.
No money moves; cost was posted when the asset was added or purchased.

Tips

Fit tyres on the day the workshop does the work, with the real odometer, not at month end from memory.
If the vehicle shows no slots, open the vehicle record and pick a layout under Other layouts; the system layouts cover most trucks and trailers.
Record the matching labour as a Vehicle Maintenance entry if the workshop charged for fitting.
