How inventory tracking works

Move-in order

Whenever a move-in order containing certain products is confirmed, it will be deducted from the inventory count.

After move-out

The product count does not increase again, particularly for consumable products (e.g., packing materials, boxes, etc.). as they are not replenished automatically.

Note: Updating the product count during a reservation does not update or affect the inventory count.
