To track inventory for an item, you’ll have to enable Inventory Tracking in your organization. To enable:

*   Go to **Settings** in the top right corner of the page.
*   Select **Items** under _Preferences_.
*   In the _General_, scroll down and check the **Enable Inventory Tracking** option. Then, enter the **Inventory Start Date**.
*   Click **Save**.

Now, you can track inventory for both new items and the existing ones for which there are no transactions.

To track inventory for an item:

*   Go to **Items** on the left sidebar.
*   Click **\+ New** in the top right corner to create a new item or select an existing item and click **Edit**.
*   Enter the item details and check the **Track Inventory for this item** option to enable inventory tracking for the selected item.
*   Enter the following fields:
    *   **Inventory Account:** Select the account in which you want to track the inventory of the item
    *   **Reorder Point:** When the stock reaches the entered reorder point, a notification will be sent to you.
    *   **Opening Stock:** The stock available for sale at the beginning of the accounting period.
    *   **Opening Stock Rate per Unit:** The rate at which you bought each unit of the opening stock.
*   Click **Save**.

Now, the selected item’s inventory will be tracked in your organization.
