How to setup inventory

Inventory management in Tebi helps you track stock levels across your products, so you always know what's available and what to reorder.

By enabling inventory, you can set opening stock quantities, see when items run low, and automatically stop selling products that have run out — reducing waste, preventing oversells, and giving you a clearer picture of your costs.

Enable inventory tracking for a product in the Back Office

  • In the Back Office, go to Products and select the product that you want to turn inventory tracking on.

  • Scroll down to the inventory section and enable ‘Track inventory’.

  • Adjust the current inventory count by clicking the pencil icon.

  • Add the number of products in stock by having the adjustment type selected as ‘Count’ and entering the number of items in stock.

  • Add the purchase price of the product to calculate the value of the stock. This is towards the top of the products page.

  • For all new products created, continue selling when out of stock will be off as default. When the product is out of stock, the product tile in the sales grid will be disabled, to prevent the product being added to an order.

  • Show inventory in the sales screen will be on as default. This allows you to see how many items are in stock during a sale.

  • Save the updates to the product. Inventory tracking will now be enabled for this product. Do this for all products that you would like to enable inventory tracking for.
