Stock Management

​
Stock Actions

From any item’s detail page, you can perform three stock actions:

​
Consume

Reduces stock when items are used. Select a reason:
  • Sample — Used in a sample (links to sample)
  • Production — Used in production (links to production order)
  • Office — Used in office/admin
  • General Factory — General factory use
  • Damaged — Item was damaged
  • Other — Anything else (add a note)

​
Restock

Increases stock when new items arrive. Typically used when:
  • Purchase order goods are received
  • Items are returned to stock
  • Initial stock count correction

​
Adjust

Sets stock to an exact number. Used for:
  • Physical count — After doing a physical stock count
  • Correction — Fixing a data entry error
  • Other — Any other reason
All stock adjustments require a reason. This keeps the transaction history clean and auditable.

​
Transaction History

Every stock change is automatically logged. View the full history on the Transactions tab of any item. Each transaction records:
  • Date and time of the change
  • Type — Consumed, Restocked, or Adjusted
  • Quantity change — How much was added or removed
  • New quantity — Stock level after the change
  • Who made the change
  • Reason/Note — Why the change was made
  • Linked order — Production order or sample (if applicable)

​
Low Stock Alerts

When an item’s stock drops below its minimum level, it is flagged:
  • An amber “Low” badge appears on the item card
  • The system can send notifications (configurable)

​
Setting Minimum Levels

Each item has a Min Stock Level field. Set this based on how quickly you use the item:
  • Fast-moving items (common buttons, zippers): set higher (e.g., 25-50)
  • Slow-moving items (special accessories): set lower (e.g., 5-10)
  • Items you don’t stock regularly: set to 0

​
Stock Safety

The system prevents negative stock — you cannot consume more than what’s available. All stock operations are atomic (guaranteed to be accurate even if multiple people update at the same time).
