# Stock & inventory basics

> Understand how BillBasket tracks stock as you sell, purchase, return, and adjust inventory — including low-stock alerts and per-product ledgers.

Stock updates automatically when you bill a sale, record a purchase, or
process a return. You can also make manual stock adjustments and see
low-stock warnings from the Inventory section.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Selling reduces stock automatically">
    When Suresh bills Meena Devi for a packet of Amul Milk 500ml, its
    stock count drops by one automatically — no manual update needed.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Purchases add stock back">
    A few days later, Rajesh Sharma records a purchase of Amul Milk from
    Bansal Wholesale Traders, and the stock count rises to reflect the new
    delivery.
  </Step>

  <Step title="A return adjusts stock too">
    When Meena returns an unopened Tata Salt packet, BillBasket adds it
    back to stock as part of processing the return.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check for low-stock warnings">
    Rajesh opens the Inventory section and sees Parle-G Biscuits flagged
    as low stock, prompting him to place a fresh order with Bansal
    Wholesale Traders.
