Get started with K-Units

What K-Units is

K-Units tracks your stock of materials, consumables and tools, down to the place where each thing is kept. It is installed at your company (Windows PC and Android tablet): the inventory data stays on the device or on the server your company chooses, with no mandatory cloud.

Install

• Windows: use the official K-Units installer (or the portable ZIP version).
• Android tablet: the person in charge installs the app from the official file provided to your company.
• After installing, the version is shown in Settings → About.

First sign-in, step by step

1. On the first screen, tap “Use on this device (recommended)”. It is the simplest way: no Internet and no server needed.
2. Check the data folder. On Android it is chosen automatically. On Windows, pick a folder on a local disk of the PC (for example C: or D:).
3. Tap “Start on this device” and then “Start new inventory”.
4. On the sign-in screen, type login admin and password admin and tap “Sign in”. This only applies to the first access of a new inventory.
5. On the “Recommended: change your password” screen, tap “Change password” and create a password with at least 8 characters, including a letter and a number. You can also tap “Not now” and change it later in Settings → Account.

First task: an item with stock
