Our product introduces several key features designed to enhance overseeing purposes of inventory management. These features include: 

  1. Inventory Lots

  1. Lock Inventory 

Locking inventory refers to the practice of temporarily restricting the movement or sale of specific items in a company's inventory. This can be done for several reasons, such as to complete specific sales order, warehousing for inventory level, and for outbound fulfillment.

  1. Bill Inventory 

Bill Inventory is a crucial concept in inventory management, referring to the portion of inventory that comprises orders that have already been fulfilled. Tracking bill inventory is vital for businesses to accurately gauge market demand and consumer purchasing patterns. By analyzing data from fulfilled orders, companies can gain insights into which products are performing well, seasonal trends, customer preferences, and as well for stock replenishment.
