Inventory

Inventory is the heart of Retailer OS: one live stock count shared by your counter, your online store, and your marketplaces. Sell a unit anywhere and every channel updates at once, so you don't oversell.

Open it from the Inventory group in the sidebar.

What's in this module

Screen	What it's for
Items (/inventory/items)	Your catalog — names, prices, costs, barcodes, and variants (size/colour). Mark items to sell online, in-store, or both.
Stock (/inventory/stock)	The live balance of every item at every location.
Reorder alerts (/inventory/reorder-alerts)	Items at or below their reorder point, ready to turn into a purchase order.
Locations (/inventory/locations)	Your shops, warehouses, and stockrooms. Stock is tracked per location.
Transfers (/inventory/transfers)	Move stock between locations with a paper trail.
Purchase orders (/inventory/purchase-orders)	Order from vendors, then receive against the PO.
Vendor receipts (/inventory/receipts)	Record what actually arrived and update stock.
Stock counts (/inventory/counts)	Full or cycle counts that reconcile the system to the shelf.

How stock moves

Every event adjusts the live balance at a location:

• A sale in POS or an online/marketplace order draws stock down.
• Receiving a purchase order brings stock in.
• A transfer moves stock between locations.
• A stock count corrects it to the physical shelf.
• A return puts restocked items back.

TIP

The number you sell against is the available balance at the selected location, not the total quantity ever received. Keep an eye on it per location in Stock.
