What is a start list?

A start list is a list of articles that your connected wholesaler makes available for your organization in BarTrack. These are articles your organization has previously ordered from this wholesaler.

Once the start list has been added, the articles are automatically added to your inventory items under My Inventory. From there, you can assign the articles to the correct stock location(s), such as your warehouse or service van.

How do you get a start list?

Only connected wholesalers can provide a start list for your organization in BarTrack.

To request a start list:

  1. Contact your account manager at the wholesaler

  2. Ask them to add a start list for your organization in BarTrack

  3. Once the wholesaler has set this up, the articles will automatically appear in My Inventory

How to use a start list (step-by-step)

Step 1: Check if the articles appear in My Inventory

  1. Log in to order.bartrack.com

  2. Go to Inventory

  3. Click on My Inventory

You will now see your inventory items. The articles from the start list are automatically added here.

Step 2: Add articles to a stock location

  1. Open the stock location to which you want to add articles (for example Warehouse or Service Van)

  2. Click the + button to add articles

  3. Search for the article (it comes from My Inventory)

  4. Select the correct article and click Add selection

The article is now added to the stock location.

Step 3: Add a position description

  1. Open the article within the stock location

  2. Add a position description (for example: “Rack A – Shelf 3” or “Van – Drawer 2”)

  3. Click save

This makes it clear for everyone where the article is physically stored.
