Stock Tracking

WebWorkstationMobile

ZynoInventory supports two tracking styles: exact quantity and Good/Low/Out.

Permission Required

Inline quantity changes require inventory edit quantity permission. Changing an item's tracking type or Good/Low/Out status requires inventory edit permission.

Tracking Types

TypeUse It When
ExactYou count units and want numeric on-hand quantities.
Good/Low/OutYou only need a simple status for supplies or non-counted stock.

Choose the tracking type when creating or editing an item.

Exact Tracking

Exact items have an On Hand quantity. They can also have a Threshold. An exact item appears in Low when the on-hand quantity is at or below its threshold. If no threshold is set, a quantity of zero is treated as low and out.

ZynoInventory item list showing exact on-hand quantities and a Good status item
The On Hand column shows exact quantities for countable items and Good/Low/Out status for status-tracked items.

Good/Low/Out Tracking

Good/Low/Out items use a status instead of a numeric quantity. They appear in Low when the status is Low or Out, and they appear in Out when the status is Out.

Change a Good/Low/Out status by opening the item and updating On Hand in Edit Inventory Item.

Update Quantity From The List

  1. Open ZynoInventory.
  2. Select the On Hand cell for an exact item.
  3. Enter a whole number.
  4. Press Enter.

The list updates the item and recalculates stock status. Press Escape or leave the cell to abandon the edit before it is submitted.
