Key Inventory Concepts​

TermDefinition
Available QuantityCurrent Quantity minus Reserved Quantity. This is what you can actually use or transfer.
Current QuantityThe total physical count of a product at a location.
Reserved QuantityUnits locked for a pending transfer. They are still at the source but cannot be used.
Par LevelThe AI-recommended ideal quantity to keep on hand. Order when you drop below this.
Low Stock ThresholdThe level you set per product that triggers an alert when available stock drops below it.

Transfer Lifecycle​

Initiated --> In Transit --> Received --> Completed
|
Auto-Cancelled (timeout)
  • NFC scans are required at both pickup and delivery for verified transfers.
  • Reserved quantities prevent double-booking during transfers.
  • Transfers auto-cancel if not completed within the timeout period.

Order Lifecycle​

Draft --> Pending Confirmation --> Confirmed --> Processing --> Out for Delivery --> Delivered --> Completed
  • Orders require an active distributor relationship.
  • Auto-reorder can be enabled for high-volume consumables with predictable demand.
