Inventory Manager
For whom
Orderers, warehouse staff, and administrators who want to manage inventory without complex ERP configuration and with direct support from wholesalers.
Who is the BarTrack Inventory Manager for?
The BarTrack Inventory Manager is the ideal solution for two common situations:
-
companies that do not yet use an inventory management solution and are looking for an accessible way to get started
-
companies that are considering activating an inventory module within their ERP system but are hesitant due to complexity, costs, and implementation effort
In both cases, BarTrack provides an independent and practical alternative without requiring changes or extensions to your ERP system.
Inventory management in ERP systems: often too complex in practice
Many ERP systems include inventory functionality. In practice, however, we often see that these solutions:
-
must be fully configured and maintained by the user
-
require ongoing maintenance of item master data and stock levels
-
are primarily designed for administrative use
-
are experienced as complex and cumbersome by warehouse staff
-
are often accompanied by additional activation and configuration costs
For colleagues who pick, store, or work with materials on the go, these solutions often do not align well with daily operational tasks.
BarTrack works alongside any ERP system
The BarTrack Inventory Manager operates independently from your ERP system and can be connected to any existing ERP solution.
This means:
-
no adjustments or module activation within your ERP
-
no complex implementation projects
-
immediate control over your inventory
BarTrack focuses entirely on practical inventory management—exactly where it is needed.
Automatic pick lists for stock withdrawals
BarTrack goes beyond traditional inventory management:
-
stock materials can be automatically added to a project
-
stock materials can easily be moved, for example from central inventory to a service van
-
based on these actions, a pick list is automatically created
The pick list can be used by warehouse staff to collect materials. After processing, inventory is updated immediately: quantities are deducted from central stock and added to the selected project or stock location.
This structured workflow helps prevent errors during stock withdrawals.
Stock put-away: fast and error-free
The BarTrack Inventory Manager includes a clear put-away function:
-
received materials can be booked online or via the BarTrack App
-
the put-away action is confirmed immediately
-
correct inventory quantities are recorded automatically
This keeps your inventory accurate at all times, without the need for manual corrections afterward.
Fully online and mobile-ready
The Inventory Manager is:
-
fully accessible online via a web browser
-
available via the BarTrack App for Android and iPhone
This allows you to manage inventory wherever you are: in the warehouse, on the road, or on-site.
Working together with wholesalers: one central inventory environment
A key difference from traditional inventory management solutions is the collaboration with wholesalers.
Via BarTrack, wholesalers can support you with:
-
adding and managing assortments
-
creating initial stock lists
-
setting up the Inventory Manager
-
printing and supplying order stickers
This support is available for all wholesalers connected to BarTrack.
More freedom than traditional VMI solutions
Many wholesalers offer VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory) solutions. These solutions:
-
are often fully managed by a single wholesaler
-
create dependency on that supplier
The BarTrack Inventory Manager works differently:
-
you manage one central inventory environment
-
automatic replenishments can be ordered from all wholesalers
-
you retain full control over your inventory and ordering process
One solution for inventory and replenishment
With the BarTrack Inventory Manager, you not only manage your inventory but also arrange (automatic) replenishments directly with all your wholesalers.
This results in:
-
less manual work
-
fewer errors
-
better overview
-
inventory levels that match actual usage
