# Inventory Management

In health campaigns, it is crucial to keep track of the resources delivered to prevent stock mis-handlings and maximise coverage. This helps to track the resource till the last mile delivery, that is, it captures the stock till it reaches the distributor, and the distributor can record the quantity of stock received along with other stock transactions.

Users can do the following:

1. Track stock till the last mile.
2. Capture stock details till the end user to keep track of the transactions that take place.
3. Record the stock transactions during a campaign.
4. Ensure the safety of stock.
5. Keep track of the stock count and verify from both ends (received versus issued) to prevent the misuse of stocks.&#x20;

## Using Inventory Management: Last Mile Delivery

### HCM Home Screen

After logging into the application, the user lands on this screen which displays daily performance (number of households registered). The progress bar must reset daily at 00:00 hours, and start from 0 registrations. The action buttons related to the beneficiary are present  which include:

* Beneficiaries
* View Reports
* Sync Data
* Call Supervisor
* File Complaint
* Manage Stock

On the bottom, there is a card that shows how many records are unsynced for the user’s convenience to sync data. If all the records are synced, then the card must say “All records are synced”.

The help button is on every screen of the application, and by clicking on it, a user can get a walkthrough of the elements on that screen.

On the top right, the administrative area assigned to the user is displayed which will be based on the level of hierarchy.

The hamburger button on the top left corner covers some other actions mentioned further.

The stock-related details are captured on this screen. “Select product” is a dropdown field that includes the resource that has been received. “Received from” is a search-based dropdown field, clicking on which navigates the user to the search facility screen that includes the facilities along with ‘Supervisor’ as the value. If the user selects ‘Supervisor’ then he/she must enter the supervisor’s name. The user must enter the quantity received, and if any additional comments are needed, they can be added.
