Stock that matches the shelf

Yes — batch-wise with FEFO picking, near-expiry alerts and a separate in-hand bucket for breakage and expiry.

Yes — Inventory ships in both the Desktop Suite and the Cloud Suite. The Desktop edition runs it against a local database on your own machine with the network unplugged; the Cloud edition runs it in the browser with roles, approvals and an audit trail over the same books. You choose the edition when you sign up, and the application is the same one either way.

Stock, godowns, batches, serials and valuation. In practice that means one read-model, batches and expiry, godowns and transfers and barcode labels — each of which is a working screen rather than a line on a roadmap. The full breakdown, with what every one of them does, is on this page above.

It is not a separate product and there is nothing to integrate. Inventory reads and writes the same database as the ledger, stock and customer master, so a figure it shows is the figure the books hold — not a copy synced overnight, and not a number you have to reconcile against another screen before you trust it.

Inventory sits in the Operations group of the catalogue, alongside Purchase & Procurement, POS / Counter and Travel & Expense. They are separate applications with their own screens, not modules of each other — but they share one database, so what you enter in any of them is immediately real to the rest.

On the Desktop edition, yes — completely. Inventory runs against a database on your own machine, so it behaves identically with the network unplugged; only AI and billing reach out. On the Cloud edition it runs in the browser and needs a connection, with the POS till the one deliberate exception.

Not as a feature of this application, and we would rather say so than claim it. The AI surfaces in LekhaPro — Copilot, the CFO, the deterministic insight engines — read the data Inventory produces, so its records inform them, but Inventory itself is deliberately a plain, fast, keyboard-first application.

It is built for Wholesale & Distribution, Retail & Shops and Pharmacy & Pharma Distribution in particular, and it is not exclusive to them — Inventory is part of the horizontal suite, so any business on LekhaPro can switch it on. Those trades are named because their industry pages describe how Inventory is used in that specific line of work.

Yes. Access is by role rather than all-or-nothing, so a billing clerk can reach Inventory without reaching the books behind it, and an approver can see what needs a decision without editing anything else. On the Cloud edition every change also carries who made it and when.

Inventory is part of the suite, not a paid add-on billed per use. What your plan tier decides is reach and depth — how many devices connect, multi-branch and multi-warehouse reporting, and whether the conversational AI copilots are switched on. The full accounting core is in every plan, including the entry tier.
