Inventory management software

Inventory management software is software used to record, track, and manage inventory levels, orders, sales, deliveries, and related stock movements. It is used in fields including retail, warehousing, distribution, and manufacturing. In manufacturing environments, such software may also be used alongside production-planning systems to support work orders, bills of materials, and related planning records. Inventory management software is intended to help organizations reduce stock shortages and limit overstocking by maintaining more systematic records of inventory and its movement.
