This article outlines the steps for ragging out items which removes them from the active inventory on the Laundris platform.
Ragout is the process of removing active items from the Laundris platform so they can be taken out of circulation. Property customers are responsible for performing ragout, and this process should be done on a regular basis as a best practice for inventory management.
