The Department Waste option on the Waste menu allows you to manage the waste containers used by a department.
The screen shows a list of all the containers.
Highlighting any container will show the details and its contents at the bottom of the screen.
- Select an item created earlier to view details
We can select containers by scrolling down the list, or you can use the Search for box on the side menu.
- Moving the cursor to the top of the list and then entering any Waste Reference Code to demonstrate this.
To seal a container:
- Select Seal this waste from the side menu.
- Optionally enter actual volume and weight
- Click OK – the container is displayed in green on the waste list
Sealing the waste will stop any more disposals to this container (unless the disposal date is before the seal date).
To request that the container is collected:
- Select Request collection from the side menu
- Enter where the container is to be collected from
- Optionally enter actual volume and weight
- Click OK – on saving, the container is displayed in grey on the waste list, and the location will change to reflect the collection area.
If you skip the Seal option, the container will automatically be sealed with the same date and user as the collection request.
