We recently announced the introduction of Inventory Ledgers in AirMed 5. This new functionality was designed to streamline your inventory management and recordkeeping.
The ledger lets you track actions performed on an inventory item. These actions are referred to as transactions in the ledger. You use the ledger as a perpetual register that records each transaction for an inventory item.
To use the ledger for a batch, for example, open the Batch Details screen and look for the Ledger tab. The tab shows a table that you use to record individual transactions related to that batch.
Each row offers fields for the date that the transaction took place along with the date the transaction was recorded in case they are different. There are also fields for the type of action that occurred, the user who performed the action and weights or counts added or removed during the action. The final column provides icons to visibly indicate adjustments or corrections to the batch. You can re-order the columns in the table by dragging.
The benefits of inventory ledgers are seen in both operational efficiency and compliance. Not only do they let you monitor the progress of a batch or lot, but tracked actions can be used to create a template for future production. During an audit, the ledger serves as a detailed register about each item, which can be used to validate processes and verify physical inventory.
Our inventory ledgers are designed to help you optimize your operations and ultimately enhance profitability. For more information about AirMed 5 visit our Software page.
