# Inventory Management Overview

Inventory Management is one of the few add-ons **not** unlocked during a free trial. To use it, purchase the add-on on any paid plan.

Fuze Store includes built-in inventory management tools. You can track stock for every product, get alerts when stock runs low, and manage inventory across multiple locations.

## Key Features

| Feature | What It Does |
| --- | --- |
| **Stock Tracking** | Monitor current stock levels for each product. |
| **Low-Stock Alerts** | Get notified when a product falls below a set threshold. |
| **Multi-Location Support** | Track stock separately for each store location. |
| **Automatic Deduction** | Stock decreases automatically when orders are completed. |
| **Stock Transfers** | Move stock between locations as needed. |

## How Inventory Works

When you create a product, you can set an initial stock quantity. Every time a customer completes an order, the system deducts the sold items from your stock count.

You can view current stock levels from the product detail screen at any time.

## Low-Stock Alerts

You can set a minimum stock threshold for each product. When stock drops to or below that number, the system flags the product as low stock. This helps you reorder before you run out.

## Multi-Location Inventory

If you operate from multiple locations, you can track stock for each one independently. This gives you a clear picture of what is available at each site.

## Getting Started with Inventory

1. **Enable stock tracking** when creating or editing a product.
2. **Set initial quantities** for each product.
3. **Set low-stock thresholds** to receive alerts.
4. **Review stock levels** regularly from the product list or inventory screen.
