Why this project exists?

The gap between the problem and our solution.

The Problem

  • ✗

    Manual spreadsheets are prone to data entry errors.

  • ✗

    No real-time visibility of stock levels across locations.

  • ✗

    Reordering is slow and reactive, leading to stockouts.

The Solution

  • ✓

    Scan barcodes with your phone for 100% accuracy.

  • ✓

    Cloud database allows instant access for entire team.

  • ✓

    Automated email alerts when stock hits min levels.

How it works

1

Register Items

Add your products with images, barcodes, and initial stock levels. You can bulk upload from Excel.

2

Record Movements

Use the 'In' or 'Out' actions to record stock changes. The app automatically calculates the new total.

3

Check Dashboards

View the 'Overview' tab to see low stock items and value of total inventory.

Project Description

This Inventory Control System is built to be a robust starting point for small to medium logistics operations. Unlike complex ERPs, this lightweight app focuses on the core necessity: knowing what you have and where it is.

The app leverages AppSheet's barcode scanning capabilities to speed up data entry. It also includes slice-based views to show only relevant items (e.g., "Low Stock" view).

Key Technical Features:

  • Barcode Scanning: Uses device camera.
  • Virtual Columns: Calculates stock value on the fly.
  • Format Rules: Highlights items in red when stock < 10.

Customization is easy. You can add columns for "Bin Location", "Supplier", or "Expiry Date" directly in your Google Sheet source.
