ShopWrk’s inventory module keeps your shop stocked and accountable. You can track how much film and material you have on hand, receive alerts before you run out, manage your film catalog, and review usage and cost reports — all from the Inventory page in the sidebar. The inventory page is organized into four tabs: Overview, Stock, Catalog, and Reports.Documentation Index

| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Normal | Quantity is above your low-stock threshold |
| Low | Quantity has dropped below the low-stock threshold |
| Critical | Quantity is at or near zero |
Low-stock alerts
When an item falls to low or critical status, ShopWrk highlights it in the Overview tab and shows a warning in the stock list. You can set per-item thresholds in the item detail.Low-stock thresholds are configurable per item. Go to the item’s detail view to set the quantity at which an alert should trigger.
Filtering stock
Filter the stock list by film type (PPF, Tinted PPF, Window Tint, Ceramic Coating), brand, or status. Use the search box to find a specific product by name.Catalog
The Catalog tab is your reference library of films and materials. Each catalog entry defines a product — brand, film type, dimensions, and pricing — independent of how much stock you currently have.Why the catalog matters
Catalog entries are the source of truth for product information. When you add stock, you pick from the catalog so that product names and specs stay consistent across all your inventory transactions and reports. ShopWrk ships with a pre-seeded catalog of common PPF, window tint, and ceramic coating products. You can add custom entries for products specific to your shop.Adding a custom catalog entry
Add a new entry
Click Add Film and fill in the product name, brand, film type, and any pricing details.
Approval-based adjustments
When a technician deducts material from inventory during a job, ShopWrk can require an owner or admin to approve the adjustment before it’s applied. This gives you a checkpoint to catch errors or unauthorized usage. Pending approvals appear as a banner at the top of the Inventory page. Click it to go to the Approvals view and review each pending deduction.Review the request
Open a pending approval to see which item was deducted, by how much, who submitted it, and the associated job.
Reports
The Reports tab gives you three analytical views of your inventory over a selected date range (7 days, 30 days, 90 days, or 1 year).Usage report
Usage report
See which materials were consumed, how much was used per film type or brand, and how usage breaks down across jobs. Filter by film type and brand to zero in on specific products.
