# What the inventory item page shows

The item page is the full picture of one inventory item. The top shows its name and SKU, with Edit to change them and Edit Reorder Level to set the reorder threshold. A table breaks the stock down by location, with Total Qty, Reserved, and Available at each location and a Total row across them; the default location is listed first, and you can expand a location to see which jobs are holding the reserved units.

The numbers mean: on hand is the physical count, reserved is what's earmarked for jobs or visits not yet completed, available is on hand minus reserved, and incoming is what's on order via purchase orders you've placed but not yet received.

Adjust Quantity changes the counted stock, and Transfer Items moves units between locations. A chart shows the item's inventory or usage over time, and a Timeline tracks activity. You can ask Essential about the item you're viewing, such as how many are in stock, how many are available, what's reserved or incoming, or whether it needs reordering.

**Timeline** is always at the bottom of the page, below the main content and side cards on every screen size.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://learn.withessential.com/field-operations/inventory/what-the-inventory-item-page-shows.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
