Use Cases

Equipment recovery without the runaround

Discover how HR and IT teams use AI agents to streamline offboarding equipment returns, track shipment statuses, and close out asset recovery cases faster.

Offboarding Equipment Status for HR Teams

An HR coordinator offboards five employees this week and needs to confirm return box shipments. Your AI Agent queries Remote Retrieval for all orders in 'pending' status, returns the tracking details for each, and flags two that were shipped but not yet received. HR has a clear view of every return without emailing the logistics team or logging into another portal.

IT Asset Reconciliation at Quarter End

The IT director asks the agent for all completed equipment returns from Q4. Your AI Agent queries Remote Retrieval with the date range filter, retrieves every completed order, and summarizes the total number of laptops and monitors recovered. The director has the data ready for the asset audit without pulling reports manually.

Employee Self-Service Return Inquiries

A remote employee messages asking when their return shipping box will arrive. Your AI Agent checks Remote Retrieval for their order status, finds the box was dispatched yesterday with a delivery estimate of two business days, and relays the information. The employee gets a quick answer without opening a support ticket or calling IT.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI agent check equipment return order status?

The agent calls Remote Retrieval's Get All Orders endpoint with optional status, date range, and pagination parameters. It retrieves order details including shipment tracking, current status (pending, shipped, completed), and associated employee information. All data is fetched in real time from your account.

Can the agent filter orders to show only overdue returns?

Yes. By combining status and date range filters, the agent can identify orders that were created before a certain date but remain in 'pending' status. Your HR or IT team gets a focused list of returns that need follow-up action without manually sorting through all records.

What Remote Retrieval credentials does Tars need?

Tars requires your Remote Retrieval API key, which you obtain from the Enterprise Remote Retrieval portal. This single key authenticates all API requests. The agent validates the key before processing any queries to ensure your connection is active and properly configured.

Does Tars store my Remote Retrieval order data?

No. All order data, company details, and status information are fetched from Remote Retrieval's API in real time during each conversation. Tars does not maintain a separate database of your equipment return records. Each query hits the live API.

Can the agent handle organizations with hundreds of equipment returns?

Yes. Remote Retrieval's API supports pagination with per_page (up to 100) and page parameters. The agent navigates through large result sets efficiently, retrieving data page by page and compiling comprehensive summaries even for organizations processing large volumes of offboarding returns.

How is this different from checking Remote Retrieval's web portal directly?

The portal requires logging in and manually searching for orders. Tars AI Agents surface that data instantly in conversation, whether an HR coordinator asks in Slack, an employee inquires on your website, or an IT manager checks via WhatsApp. No portal login needed.

Can the agent provide company-level details for reporting?

Yes. Using the Get Company Details endpoint, the agent retrieves organizational information including contact details and optionally financial data. This gives managers a high-level view of their account configuration and usage directly through the conversation interface.

What happens if the API key expires or becomes invalid?

The agent uses Remote Retrieval's Validate User endpoint to confirm credential validity before processing requests. If the key is invalid or expired, the agent clearly communicates the issue and recommends generating a new API key from the Enterprise portal, preventing confusing error messages.
