Inventory

Post by **corpse** » Mon May 02, 2005 2:15 am

I have a freind with a small business and he's looking for a program to keep track of his inventory and such.

I know I can google and get 7million results, but I was wondering if any of you guys know of a good program for that.

It is a small business so it doesnt need to be anything huge or complex.

file maker pro

edit - or excel, I use both in small business (less than 25 staff, and $2,000,000 turn over pa).

Quickbooks has some good inventory management add-ons. If thats not his accounting app of choice check out the application's vendor for inventory management add-ons.

Thats great if the inventory is a few products. If its a full product line that would be a nightmare.

I think he basically just wants something to keep track of inventory items, like say he has 20 items and sells 6. He can go into the progam and find out what number of items "X" he has left in stock type of thing.

Do you mean excel, as in Office Excel?

I didn't know that Excel could do inventory and such

Excel can do wonders in the right hands.

I opened Excel and in help, typed in Inventory and it said there were no matches. Oh well, I guess I need to spend some time googling
