Every catalog item has a detail page that is the single source of truth for its stock: how much you have, where it lives, what you paid, and everything that has ever happened to it. You can view an item's detail page by clicking the item on the Inventory page.
Reading an Item's Detail Page
Every item is tracked down to its smallest purchasable unit. A case of 24 cans, for example, is tracked as 24 individual cans on hand, so your on-hand count stays accurate no matter how you purchase it. Here is what each part of the detail page shows, from top to bottom.
The Item Header
The top of the page identifies the item: its name, its beverage category (Beer, Wine, Spirit, RTD, or Non-Alcoholic), and, underneath, the brewery or producer, the container size, and the package tiers it comes in, such as Single or 6-Pack.
The oz, ml, L, and gal buttons in the top right switch every volume figure on the page, including Total Volume and the subtotals in Package Availability, between units. This is purely a display choice. It does not change how the item is tracked or counted underneath.
Total Container Quantity
This is how many containers of this item you have on hand right now, in whatever container the item is tracked in, such as 750ml bottle or 12oz can. The badge next to it, In Stock, Low Stock, or Out of Stock, reflects the Reorder Point you set in Stock Thresholds below.
Total Volume
The same on-hand quantity expressed as volume rather than container count, in whichever unit is selected at the top of the page. This is the number to use when you need to think in ounces or liters rather than bottles or cans.
Latest Cost
The cost of the most recent delivery, shown per package (for example, per 6-Pack) alongside the equivalent cost per base unit (per bottle or per can), plus the date it was received. This always reflects the most recent receipt, even if an earlier delivery cost something different. See Understanding Costs in Untappd Inventory for how this number is calculated and when it does and does not update.
What the Stock Status Badges Mean
Every item carries one of three stock-status badges, driven by the Reorder Point you set in Stock Thresholds. Par Level does not affect the badge, but shows how far below par you are:
- In Stock: above your reorder point.
- Low Stock: at or below the reorder point, but more than zero on hand.
- Out of Stock: nothing on hand at all.
Keep letting stock run down and the badge updates as it crosses each threshold. An item that showed Low Stock earlier will read Out of Stock once the last one is gone.
Stock Thresholds
Two optional fields that control the stock status badge:
- Reorder Point: the quantity, measured in total base units on hand, at or below which this item is flagged Low Stock.
- Par Level: your fill-up-to target, the quantity you want on hand after restocking. This does not affect the badge, but gives you a reference point when you reorder.
Leave either field blank to leave it not set. Clearing a field that already has a number removes that threshold. Click Save to apply a change.
Package Availability
A breakdown of this item's stock by storage area, then by package tier within each area. All Areas shows every storage area at once, each with its own container and volume subtotal. Click a specific area's tab to see only that area's breakdown.
Move Stock, in the top right of this section, lets you shift stock between areas without changing the item's total.
How to Move Stock Between Storage Areas
- Click Move Stock on an item's detail page.
- Choose a From area, a To area, which package tier, and how many.
The item's total does not change. Only where it is recorded as living changes. The move posts immediately: Package Availability splits across both areas right away, and two new move transactions appear in the log, one leaving the source area and one arriving at the destination.
Cost History
A running list of what you have paid for an item, one entry per delivery received: the cost per package, the equivalent cost per base unit, the date received, and how many packages that delivery brought in. This is where to look when you need to see how a cost has changed over time, rather than just the latest one.
Transactions
The full history behind every number above: every receipt (an invoice), adjustment (a count), and stock move, each with its own effect on quantity and volume and a timestamp for when it was recorded. If a number on this page moved, it is in this list. The name of the last vendor this item was received from is shown at the top of this section.
