Inventory Item Detail

An inventory item represents a physical instance of a specific part number. You can find the detailed information for specific inventory by using the search bar in the Inventory Library. You can also find all inventory associated with a part number at the bottom of P/N detail window.

Part Fields​

Details are displayed for the part number related to this inventory. These fields are not editable.

Clicking on Available Units displays the Inventory Library, filtered by the part number & status of available. Clicking on Total Units displays the Inventory Library, filtered by the part number.

Inventory Fields​

There is a slight distinction between inventory that is tracked by serial number, lot, and untracked.

Boltline Flexibilty

One of the tenets that Boltline is built on is Flexibility. The software should not get in the way of the boots on the ground source of truth. Given that, we've made some decisions that allow for users to change serial numbers if that is the right thing to do.

Serial (S/N)​

  • S/N - For serially tracked items you will see the S/N for this single piece of inventory. Boltline allows you to change the S/N, but it must be unique for each part number.
  • Qty - Number of units available for this S/N. The quantity will always be "1" for a S/N and cannot be changed.
  • Inventory Location - The current location for this S/N. Changing the location will move the S/N (in Boltline) to the location selected.

Lot​

  • Lot - For Lot tracked Items you will see the Lot ID (alphanumeric). Boltline allows the flexibility to change this.
  • Qty - Quantity on hand for this part and this lot ID. The number of units can be modified to match reality.
  • Inventory Location - The current location for this lot. Changing the location will move the lot (in Boltline) to the location selected.

Move Partial Quantity​

You can move partial quantities of Lot tracked items to match reality.

  • Click the Move partial quantity button, to the right of Qty | Units. When you hover over the circle with the move symbol, Move partial quantity appears.
  • Enter the Move Quantity. The quantity entered must be less than total quantity on hand for the lot.
  • Click Submit.
Successful Move!

The partial quantity was moved to the chosen location. You will see the Inventory detail window for the partial quantity just moved.

Untracked​

Untracked items behave the same as Lot tracked items, minus having a lot ID or S/N. You can modify location and quantity, and can move partial quantities.

Below the Field Groups, at the bottom of the window, is a row of tabs showing relationships for this inventory item.

  • Activity - Any user activity on the part. For example, if you create a work plan for your part, that activity will be displayed here. You can also comment to provide additional traceability context.
  • Attachments - Any files, diagrams, or images related to the part.
  • [Workflow Cards](../../Workflows/cards/ - Work activity related to this part.
  • Work Plans - Any active or completed work procedures associated with this part.
  • History - Audit log of any system changed event. For example, if there was an import from an upstream system that changed data for this part, the system log will track the change.
