 To fill up your inventory the first time, CSV import is the best way to go. So here's what you do: Jump into the Inventory app, head to the "operations" menu, then hit up "Inventory Adjustments." You're basically setting up a blank adjustment here - think of it like an outline.


Use the "import" button in this adjustment to bring in your CSV file. Your CSV should have 'Product', 'Location', 'Quantity', and 'Lot/Serial Numbers' if you're tracking those. Believe me, getting this CSV right is critical. Double-check the numbers, or you'll regret it later.


In a past project, we found ourselves in the same mess, but Cleverence tools helped us automate everything with mobile devices, even letting us verify inventory offline - what a lifesaver! The low-code setup meant we could tweak things without drowning in code, which was a godsend. It also integrates easily with your ERP, making all those initial hassles way more manageable. Trust me, it’s worth a look if you want some peace of mind. Good luck!

Hi,

Here are some initial tasks to begin with after reviewing the provided documentation and tutorials:

  1.  You can set up your warehouse by navigating to Inventory > Warehouses.
  2.  Generate your products by visiting Inventory > Products. Click on Create and input details such as product name, description, and other relevant information.
  3. You can set up your Reordering Rules to facilitate stock replenishment and order fulfilment. Access this feature through Inventory > Configuration > Reordering Rules.

Are you trying to just create the items, or setting the quantity? how many product are we talking here. you can import the item using an excel file. Or create them manually. Is it new system or you are migrating from another system. In the latest witch one?
