The admin can click on ‘Assign Product By Barcode’ which will open up the option to assign product quantity via barcode. Hence, the admin here can click on ‘Assign By Barcode’ button.

After that, a pop-up will appear as Add POS stock by Barcode Reader under which following details will be visible-

  • Name of the product– Name of the product will be displayed.
  • Master Stock- This refers to the stock of the product in the main inventory.

If we have two outlets as A and B and we have a product with a total quantity of as 100. Where we have assigned 80 to outlet A then we can assign only 20 product to outlet B.

  • POS Stock- This refers to the stock of the product which is dedicated to the physical store.
  • SKU- The Unique code as in default Magento 2 which represents the product. This code is linked with the barcode of the product.

Thus, allowing the admin to ease the process of product inventory management.

Sources are the physical stores where inventories are kept. For example, any source USA can have multiple stores in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc.

These stores will be treated as Outlets and each outlet will be mapped or connected to Source. Sources are created when there are multiple inventory locations available for any particular store.

If the admin will update the quantity of particular product for any specific outlet then the same quantity will be visible in the admin product page for that source.

For doing this view the outlet in edit mode and assign a product using Barcode. Select any particular product and update the product quantity as shown in the image below:
