Log material taken to a job

Keep counts honest by recording what left the yard, in one sentence, at the truck.

The count changes where everyone can see it.

On-hand and low-stock stay current because logging takes one sentence.

How it works

What Lana uses

  • Your message
  • Your inventory catalog and unit of measure
  • Your locations and sub-locations
  • Job names, so the material is tied to the right work

What you get back

  • An inventory transaction against the right location
  • Updated on-hand counts
  • A low-stock flag when the withdrawal crosses your threshold
  • A record of who took it, when, and for which job
1

You say what you took

Item, quantity, where it came from, where it went.

2

Lana matches it to your catalog

It confirms the item and location, and asks if the name is ambiguous.

3

It records the transaction

On-hand counts change at the location it actually left.

4

Low stock surfaces itself

If the withdrawal drops you under a reorder point, Lana says so while you are still standing there.

What this looks like today

Inventory records go stale for one reason: recording a withdrawal is more work than taking the material. So the crew takes it and means to tell someone.

Three weeks later the count is fiction, and nobody trusts it enough to use it.

What needs to be true first

  • The item, unit and location have to exist in your inventory catalog.
  • You need access to the location you are withdrawing from.
  • This records material that has moved. A need for future material is a request on a board instead.
  • Corrections are their own entry — tell Lana and it adjusts the count.

Log one withdrawal at the truck

The habit is the whole thing. If logging takes a sentence, the count stays worth reading.
