The stock dashboard is your live picture of inventory — how much of each item is on hand, what it's worth, and what's running low — broken out per [location](/procurement/glossary). Every receipt, transfer, adjustment, and stock take updates it, so the numbers you see are the current [stock balance](/procurement/glossary), not a nightly snapshot. What you see depends on who you are. **Owners and managers** get a network-wide console view across every warehouse, kitchen, and outlet. **Outlet staff** see only their own outlet's stock. The sections below call out which is which. ## How stock is valued Quantities are stored in each item's base [unit (UOM)](/procurement/glossary). The value of what's on hand is `quantity × average cost`, where the average cost is maintained by [weighted moving average (WMA)](/procurement/glossary) — every receipt blends the price you just paid into the running average. So "stock value" always reflects what your inventory actually cost you, not a list price. An item is flagged **low** when its on-hand quantity falls to or below the [par level / reorder point](/procurement/glossary) set for it at that location. Items with no par set are never flagged low. ## The console view (owner / manager) Managers and owners land on a dashboard home that rolls the whole network into a few headline numbers, then drill into the full inventory screen for detail. ### Dashboard headlines The owner home surfaces, at a glance: Total value of on-hand stock across all locations, with a count of how many locations it spans. How many items are below their threshold network-wide — a one-tap route into the low-stock list. Open purchase orders, and how many are in transit toward a location. Month-to-date spend with a trend versus last month and a six-month bar trend. The **manager** home reframes the same data as a "Needs your action" list — pending requests, **Low stock alerts** across all outlets, active POs awaiting outlet confirmation, and GRN variances to review. ### The inventory screen Opening the inventory screen gives managers and owners two toggles: The full item catalog at the warehouse, as a table: each item's tier (raw / semi / finished), category, average price, on-hand quantity, par, a level bar, and value. A KPI band on top shows warehouse inventory value, total SKUs, value held at outlets, and how many items are below half-par. You can filter by tier, by category, or to just the low items, and search by name. A card per outlet (and central kitchen), each showing that location's stock value, item count, and an **at-par** percentage — plus a **LOW** badge when items there have dropped below half their par. Tap a card to open that location's full stock-in-hand table. Managers can also switch the warehouse table between **Active**, **Archived**, and **All** to see archived items, and act on a row directly — edit the item, view its movement, or archive it. The inventory screen is also where you reach a **stock take**. The on-hand figures it shows are the recorded balance; a stock take is how you reconcile that against a physical count. See the [glossary](/procurement/glossary) for stock take and variance. ### A single outlet's stock (console) Opening an outlet card shows every item stocked there as a read-only table — on-hand vs par with level bars, a value column, and a status pill that reads **OK**, **WATCH**, or **LOW** depending on how far on-hand has dropped against par. Three KPIs head the page: stock value, the at-par percentage, and how many items are below half-par. You can search, filter to just the low items, and copy an item's SKU. Counting itself happens in the stock take, not here. ## Per-item drill-down From any inventory list, opening an item shows its full stock story: * **Total stock** across locations, the par, and the last price paid. * **Stock by location** — a row per location with on-hand, a level bar, and that location's par, so you can see where the stock actually sits. * **Sourcing** — the vendors that supply the item, with the preferred/default one marked. * **Recent movement** — the [stock ledger](/procurement/glossary) for this item: GRNs received, transfers in and out, consumption, opening balances, and adjustments, each with a signed quantity and when it happened. * **Change history** — the field-level [audit log](/procurement/glossary) (old value → new value, who, when). This section is **owner/manager-only**; other personas see the item read-only without it. ## The staff (outlet) view Outlet staff see a stock screen scoped to their own outlet — never another outlet's, and never the warehouse master. It opens with two stat tiles: * **On-hand value** — the value of stock currently in their outlet. * **Below par** — how many items have dropped below their par, out of the total. Below that is a searchable, category-filterable list of every item in the outlet, each row showing on-hand, par, a low pill, and a stock-level bar. Tapping a row opens the same per-item detail (minus the owner-only change history). The staff home also pulls these numbers forward — when items are running low it offers a **Quick order** shortcut prefilled with the short items. When a **weekly stock take** (blind count) is open for an outlet, that outlet's on-hand figures and low-stock flags are **hidden** for staff — masked on the stock list and stat tiles — so the recorded numbers can't be back-solved while the physical count is in progress. The figures reappear once the count is submitted. Owners and managers are not masked. ## Low-stock alerts The dedicated low-stock screen lists items at or below their reorder threshold, split into **Out of stock** (nothing on hand) and **Running low**, with a search box. The action button adapts to who you are: managers and owners get **Raise PO** (straight into a new purchase order), while staff get **Order** (into a purchase request). This list is scoped to the master warehouse, matching the console's "running low" headline. Low-stock counts and the stock dashboard always agree because both read the same live balances. If a number looks off, confirming a pending [GRN](/procurement/confirm-grn) or posting a stock-take adjustment will bring it current.
