    Inventory Types

    Inventory Types are one of the many customizable categories we offer in Steelhead. The most common set up for inventory types follow treatment groups. An inventory type is used for grouping similar inventory, just like treatment groups. Some examples of different inventory types may be:

    1. Powder
    2. Primer
    3. Lab Chemicals
    4. Production Chemicals
    Inventory Type Units

    Inventory types have units. You can choose the most appropriate unit when you create the inventory type. It is recommended to use the same units that you use when purchasing or consuming the inventory.

    For example, if you buy or use powder by the ounce, choose "OZ" as your unit.

    Inventory Types can simply be found through the Inventory button on the homescreen. The Inventory Menu that contains them also has a few other buttons like:
