# Managing inventory

> Track medical supplies, record usage, and monitor stock levels across your organisation.

> Video tutorial coming soon

## Overview

The Inventory screen lets you track medical supplies — medications, first aid items, and other health consumables — across your organisation. You can monitor stock levels, record usage, and get alerted when items run low.

## Adding an inventory item (Web)

1. In the left sidebar, click **Inventory**.
2. Click **+ Add item**.
3. Enter the item name, category, current stock quantity, and (optionally) a low-stock threshold and expiry date.
4. Click **Save**.

## Recording consumption (Web)

1. Find the item in the inventory list.
2. Click the item to open its detail view.
3. Click **Record use** and enter the quantity consumed.
4. Add an optional note (e.g. student name or event reference).
5. Click **Confirm** — the stock level updates immediately.

<Tip>
  Items with stock below the low-stock threshold are highlighted automatically. Use categories to organise items — for example, Inhalers, EpiPens, First Aid, or PPE.
</Tip>

<Note>
  Inventory is available to staff and admin accounts only. Personal (Home) tenant accounts do not have access to inventory.
