Available when enabled — entirely optional

Inventory that helps when you want it—and stays out of the way when you don’t.

Turn on the optional inventory workspace for barcode scanning, product-name search, simple quantity tracking, useful tags, and practical manual entry.

Pet Pantry Pro keeps pantry service first, while giving teams that need it a practical, optional way to track what is on hand.

Inventory is off until the pantry turns on the Inventory tab in Settings. Teams that do not need inventory can leave it disabled and keep their familiar client, pet, eligibility, visit, distribution, report, backup, and synchronization workflow.

The inventory workflow

Scan, search, organize, and keep moving

  1. Scan or enter the product barcode.Use the camera scanner on a supported mobile device, a connected scanner, or type the UPC, EAN, or other product barcode.
  2. Find the item.Search the included pet-food catalog by barcode, product, or brand, with online lookup available when connected.
  3. Track what is on hand.Set an on-hand quantity and a low-stock threshold, then make simple adjustments as stock changes.
  4. Organize in the way your pantry works.Use pet type and tags such as grain free or low fat to make products easier to find.
  5. Use manual entry when needed.Add a product when it has no barcode or no catalog match, then update or remove it whenever needed.

The mission remains first

Inventory should support service—not turn service into warehouse work.

The fastest inventory system is not helpful if it makes a family wait longer at the pantry table. We continue to refine the workspace around the people doing the work, validate it with real organizations, and keep the core service workflow clear.

Help us improve it

Tell us what your pantry actually needs

Do you receive pallets, individual donations, or both? Do you track expiration dates, storage locations, package sizes, donor restrictions, or only broad totals? Which scanners do you already own? What takes too much time today?

We are open to ideas and would genuinely like to hear them as the workspace evolves. Real pantry feedback is more valuable than assumptions made in a development room.
