Fixed asset management, built in Namibia

Know where every asset is, who has it, and what it is worth

Silosset is the fixed asset register for organisations in Namibia and Southern Africa. Label assets with QR codes, hand them out and take them back, count them every quarter, and let depreciation post itself.

What Silosset does

The whole life of an asset, in one place

From the day it is bought to the day it is sold or written off, every asset has one record, and everything that happens to it lands there.

01

Register

Every asset in one list, with its cost, location, holder, files and custom fields.

02

Label and scan

Print QR labels, stick them on, and scan with any phone camera to see or update an asset.

03

Count

Run a stock count per location, scanning labels with a phone, and see exactly what has not been found.

04

Report

Depreciation posted every month and Excel exports ready for your auditors.

Asset register

One register your whole team trusts

Search and filter every asset by tag, category, location or status. Open one and see its cost, its holder, its files and every change ever made to it, with who made it.

  • Custom fields per category or tag
  • Approval for assets added by others
  • Bulk import from your existing Excel register
Asset tracking
The asset register in Silosset, listing tag, name, category, location, status and opening book value for each asset

Assignments

Hand assets out, and get them back

Assign laptops, vehicles and tools to people, with a due-back date and an electronic signature. Silosset shows what is out right now and how late each return is.

  • Signed hand-overs, emailed to the assignee
  • Partial returns when only some items come back
  • Kits that go out and come back together
Assignments and lifecycle
Everything currently out with people, with how many days late each return is

Stock counts

Count every location, as often as you need

Open an audit group for a location and a window. Counters scan labels with a phone, record each asset's condition, and the count shows what is still to be found.

  • One count per location and window, planned ahead
  • Condition, photos and position recorded per asset
  • Audit coverage in the summary report
Audits and stock counts
A running stock count, listing the assets still to find at the location

Depreciation

Book values that keep themselves current

Choose a schedule per asset: straight line, declining balance, sum of the years' digits or units of production. Silosset posts every month and keeps each period, so the carried value is never a guess.

  • Your currency and fiscal year
  • Every period kept and exportable
  • Opening balances for assets you already own
Depreciation
An asset's depreciation schedule, with the carried-at value and every monthly period written down

Reports

Answers for finance, operations and auditors

See book value, scan rate, audit coverage and data quality at a glance, then export the asset register, depreciation schedule or audit trail to Excel.

  • Financial, operational, lifecycle and upcoming reports
  • Filter by period and location
  • Six Excel exports, generated in the background
Reports and exports
The summary report: active assets, book value, scan rate, audit coverage, data quality and fleet status

Administration

Control who can do what

Invite your team and give each person exactly the access they need, from read-only to full administration, with every grant visible in one place.

  • Permissions per action, not just per page
  • A history of who changed access and when
  • Automations that email reminders on their own
Roles and permissions
A member's access: every permission they hold, grouped by area, and the role it comes from

On the floor

Works on the phone already in your pocket

Silosset runs in the browser. There is nothing to install: open it on any phone, point the camera at a label, and the asset opens.

  • Scan to look up, issue, take back or count
  • Anyone who scans a label can contact the owner
  • Secure labels that cannot be copied onto another asset

Frequently asked questions

Something else? Ask us.

What is Silosset?

Silosset is fixed asset management software. It keeps one register of everything an organisation owns, tracks who holds each asset and where it is, runs stock counts, and calculates depreciation every month.

How does QR code scanning work?

Silosset prints QR labels that you stick on your assets. Anyone on your team opens Silosset in the browser on their phone, scans a label with the camera, and the asset opens, ready to issue, take back or count. There is no app to install.

Can I import my existing asset register?

Yes. Upload your register as an Excel spreadsheet and Silosset maps the columns to its fields, checks every row, and shows you what will be created before anything is saved. We can help you prepare the file.

Does Silosset support several locations?

Yes. Assets belong to locations and sites, stock counts run per location, and reports can be filtered by location. Most of our customers have a head office and one or more branches or warehouses.

Which depreciation methods does Silosset support?

Straight line, declining balance, sum of the years' digits and units of production. Depreciation posts monthly on a schedule, follows your fiscal year, and every period is kept per asset and exportable to Excel.

Is Silosset cloud-based or on-premises?

Both. Most organisations use the hosted service at app.silosset.com, where we run the servers, updates and security. Organisations that must keep data on their own servers can run Silosset on-premises under an annual licence.

How quickly does support respond?

Within 24 hours, by email, phone or the chat on this site. Support comes from the same Namibian team that builds Silosset.
