Inventory Management

TL;DR

You can create one or more 'Warehouses' and add 'Parts' and part details like descriptions, prices, quantities, manufacturer and vendor details, minimum order quantities, etc.

Warehouses - Parts - Inventory.

SuperCMMS follows the 'Asset > Sub-Asset > Part' hierarchy. The 'Warehouse' is where you store the 'Parts', i.e. the 'Inventory'.

We define a 'Part' as a replaceable (consumable) unit of an Asset or Sub-Asset. In other words, a part does not have sub-parts. It is a whole. A nice example of a part is 'light bulb'. A 'light bulb' could belong to an asset called 'Lamp'. A 'light bulb' will not have any other parts to it. If is blows up, you just replace it with a new one from the Warehouse.

Here are key things to note about the Inventory Module.

• A 'Default Warehouse' is created for you. Any 'Part' you create under an Asset or Sub-Asset is added to this Default Warehouse.

• You can create more warehouse locations as required.

• Within each warehouse, you can add 'Parts' and other part details like descriptions, prices, quantities, manufacturer and vendor details, minimum order quantities, etc.

• You can move Parts between warehouses.

• Work Orders will automatically display the warehouse where the Parts are available along with their quantities.

Custom Fields - Make Inventory Powerful.

As with everything else in SuperCMMS, the Inventory module is designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind. This doesn't mean you have an under-powered Inventory Module.

You can create 'Custom Fields' to make the Inventory Module meets the specific needs of your organization. You can create 'Custom Fields' like ....

• Single Line Text

• Multi Line Text

• Date

• Number

• Currency

• Drop Down List

Each 'Custom Field' shows up as a column in the table view of Parts. You can sort and filter these columns to quickly find the details you need.
