Inventory Management

The Heart of Your Bar

BarBud's inventory system is designed for speed. We support both Bottle Tracking (for spirits/wine) and Unit Tracking (for beers/canned drinks).

Adding & Editing Items

Navigate to the "All Items" view to see your full catalog. Click any card to edit its details.

• Par Level: The minimum amount you want on hand. If stock dips below this, the item is flagged as "Low Stock".
• Bottle Size: Essential for accurate pouring cost calculations. Common sizes (750ml, 1L) are preset.
• Cost Price: Your purchase price per unit. Used to calculate Profit Margins.

Quick Adjustments

You don't need to open the full edit form to adjust stock.

• Tap the Stock Number on any card to increment it by 1.
• Long Press the card to open a quick-stock menu.

Low Stock Alerts

The Dashboard features a "Low Stock" widget. This updates in real-time.

• Yellow Alert: Stock is below Par Level.
• Red Alert: Stock is 0 (Out of Stock).

Purchase Orders

Use the Purchasing section in Settings to restock.

1. Add your Vendors (e.g., Southern Glazer's, Breakthru).
2. Create a new Purchase Order.
3. Add items to the PO. The system will auto-suggest items that are below par from that vendor.
4. When the delivery arrives, mark the PO as Received to automatically update your inventory counts.
