The inventory Dashboard gives you a quick summary of your raw material stock: how many items you hold, what they are worth, which are running low or out, and what is on its way from production.

  • Total Value: The overall value of the stock.
  • Low Stock: Items flagged as low in stock.
  • Out of Stock: Items that are currently unavailable.
  • Incoming: Quantities on the way, shown with the note From production.
  • Recent Activity: The three latest stock movements, each with the reason, material, location, time and the quantity added (+) or removed (-). If there are none, it shows No recent activity.
