honeysuckle
equipment & assets — every truck, tool, and machine you own

add your first piece of equipment
honeysuckle is the master list of every truck, tool, and machine your business owns. one card per item with the details you'll wish you had next time something breaks or gets stolen.

set a service reminder
anything that runs (truck, mower, generator, ac unit) needs service on a cadence. set the next-service-due date and honeysuckle warns you 14 days out so you can schedule before it goes overdue.

find equipment fast on a job site
you're standing on a job and the customer asks if it's the same drill that was here last time. asset-tag and serial-number search are built for that exact moment.

track condition so broken gear stays out of jobs
every piece of equipment has a condition tag — new, good, fair, needs repair, or retired. anything tagged "needs repair" automatically drops out of crawdad's job-assignment picker.

link equipment to the vendor who sold it to you
when service comes due or warranty time hits, you want the supplier's contact one click away — not buried in an email from three years ago.

assign equipment to crawdad jobs
honeysuckle owns the master list; crawdad assigns specific equipment to specific jobs. that way you know which truck and which tools are committed where on any given day.

attach receipts and manuals to an equipment card
the purchase receipt, the manual, the warranty card — all lives in bullfrog and links to the equipment card. when you need it for an insurance claim or a repair, it's one click away instead of buried in your email.

track purchase price and depreciation
every equipment card has a purchase date and price field. that gives you a depreciation starting point for tax-time conversations with your cpa — section 179, bonus depreciation, or straight-line.

assign equipment to a specific person
if a tool, a phone, or a truck is checked out to a specific crew member, set the assignee on the card. helps when something goes missing or when you're tracking who has what.

retire equipment that's done
when a tool is sold, scrapped, or stolen, retire it instead of deleting. the card stays for history (warranty claims, depreciation, tax) but drops out of crawdad's job-assignment picker.

see what's coming due from the dashboard
the honeysuckle dashboard widget surfaces equipment with a service-due date inside the next 14 days. one click drops you to the equipment list filtered to those items.

label your equipment with asset tags
for any business with three or more of the same kind of tool (drills, ladders, sanders, trucks), an asset tag ("drill #3") makes the difference between a 10-second lookup and a 5-minute hunt through serial numbers.
