In short

How do I know what gear to sub rent before a job runs short?

WebRun opens Flex Rental Solutions every Monday, totals booked and quoted demand for every gear category across the next 3 weeks, and compares it against your owned stock. It logs any shortfall to a Google Sheets tracker and drafts a sub rental inquiry to your regular vendor in Gmail, left unsent for your review before it goes out.

  • Gear shortfalls surface 3 weeks out instead of the week of the show
  • Vendor inquiries are drafted and ready, never sent without review
  • Sub rental tracker replaces a manual weekly inventory check

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it email a sub rental vendor without me?

No. WebRun only drafts the inquiry email in your Gmail account and leaves it unsent. You review the quantity and dates before anything goes to a vendor.

Does it count tentative or quoted jobs, not just confirmed ones?

Yes. It totals both confirmed and quoted bookings, so a shortfall shows up while there is still time to line up a sub rental before the job is locked in.

How far ahead does it look for shortfalls?

It checks the next 3 weeks of bookings against owned stock every Monday, so gaps surface with enough lead time to place a sub rental order.
