Inventory List

WarningThis section performs best on a minimum screen size of 1920 x 1080.  For smaller screen sizes, a scroll bar will appear on the bottom of the screen to facilitate the entire width of this list.

After search for inventory in the top section, a list of all products matching your criteria will appear below.  This screen allows for direct modification.  You can verify the current listed quantity, change it to the new quantity, and then Post New Values.

You can also print this list to create a physical report that can be carried to the inventory location if you are unable to take a laptop or tablet with you for the task.
