What is Inventory Management?

It controls the entire flow of items, from purchase to sale, ensuring that you will always have the right quantities of the right item in the right location at the right time.

What is the workflow for inventory management?

Inventory management works on a basic level by tracking items, components, and ingredients across suppliers, stock on hand, manufacturing, and sales to ensure that stock is used as efficiently and effectively as appropriate. It may go as far as you need it to, such as studying the distinction between dependent and independent demand or predicting sales to plan ahead. But, in the end, it all comes down to your stock.
