# Inventory

SuperCMMS comes with an easy to use and powerful '**Inventory Module**'. The Inventory Module has three key components.

1. Warehouses
2. Parts
3. Stock Register

### **1. Warehouses**

This is a physical location or building where you store all your **Parts**.

* A '**Default Warehouse**' is created for every account.
* You can add more Warehouse as required.
* Parts can be moved between Warehouses.

### 2. Parts

We define a '**Part**' as a replaceable unit of an Asset or Sub-Asset. In other words, a '**Part**' is any individual component, material, or item held in stock that is used in the production of goods or for maintenance and repair of equipment.

* You can add 'Parts' within Warehouses.
* For each part you can add details like descriptions, prices, quantities, manufacturer and vendor details, minimum stock levels, etc. You can also create 'custom fields' for part details. 
* You can move 'Parts' between 'Warehouses'.

### 3. Stock Register

A 'Stock Register' is used to track all 'IN' and 'OUT' movements of 'Parts'. This helps you monitor and manage stock levels accurately for effective inventory management.

**You do a 'Stock IN' entry when ....**&#x20;

* You purchase Parts from a Manufacturer or a Vendor.
* You receive Parts from another Warehouse.
* Parts are 'checked-in' by a User.

**You do a 'Stock OUT' entry when ....**

* Parts are consumed by a Work Order.
* Parts are 'checked-out' by a User.
* Parts are sent to another Warehouse.

All Stock-IN and Stock-OUT entries are accompanied by 'Quantity' and 'Cost' details. These help you keep track of 'Minimum Stock Levels' and 'Stock Value'.
