Inventory
• I am going to be pulling the inventory list from Destiny on Sept 5th for your school. I will need you to remove any lost or stolen iPads if you have not updated this in Destiny and add any missing serial numbers prior to this date. This information is what your school's insurance billing will be created from. We don't want your school to be billed for iPads you don't have. Preview your list of Staff iPads I have pulled and send me any corrections needed by editing the Google Doc link I will share with you in an email at the conclusion of this meeting. The company is going to remove these iPads from the billing quote.

shipping label • box the damaged ipad, attach the label• call Fed Ex to have the box picked up from your school • Fed ex will return your same repaired ipad to your school in
a few days • There will be no paperwork to send to CO inventory since
we won't be getting replacement iPads, but repaired ones • Save the returned box for a future a repair
