Getting started
- Add your first items
Type items in one at a time, import a spreadsheet, or tell Anbar what you keep.
- Create your workspace
Sign up, choose how to start, name your business and add the first place you keep stock.
- Import a spreadsheet
Bring a CSV of your items, and review every row before it is added.
- Locations
Add the places you keep stock, such as a stockroom, a bar or a van.
- Today
What needs a decision: low and out stock, counts with a difference, and your alerts.
Stock
- Activity
Every stock change and workspace change, and who made it.
- Alerts
Low stock, counts that need you and new reorder lists, newest first.
- Barcodes and scanning
Scan a barcode to find an item, add a new one, or link a code to an item you have.
- Categories
Group your items the way your team talks about them.
- Item photos
Take or choose a photo for an item, so your team knows it on the shelf.
- Items, units and packs
Add and edit items, the unit each is counted in, and the pack it is bought in.
- Loss reports
Everything written off, with its reason, each loss in its item's own unit.
- Alert level and par
Set when an item counts as low, and what full looks like, so alerts and reorders work.
- Record a loss
Write off stock that broke, spoiled, was stolen or was miscounted, with its reason.
- Reorder list
What to order, saved as a list you can share and send. Anbaro never places an order for you.
- Stock in and out
Record what came in or went out, and read every change on an item.
- Suppliers
Keep your suppliers' contacts, and which items you order from each.
Counts
- Count out loud
Say each item and how many while you count, check the list, and confirm the whole count once.
- Counts
Count what is physically on the shelf at a location, then finalize to set the stock.
- Offline and sync
Keep counting with no connection; saved values send themselves when you're back.
Team
- Invite your team
Bring people into your workspace, each with a role and the locations they can see.
- Join a workspace
Accept an invitation from a teammate and join their workspace.
- Location access
Choose which locations a teammate can see, or remove their access.
- Roles
What Owners, Managers and Staff can each do, and making a role of your own.
