RentMaster™ maximizes your ability to organize and manage your inventory. You can mark inventory items as available or not available for rent, you can generate a printable report of product availability by time and quantity, and you can generate a printable report of orders containing a specified inventory item (see Generate Inventory Reports). Products in for-sale categories and subcategories are automatically removed from the system when sold.
From the Main Menu, click [Inventory] > Show Inventory. The [Inventory] tab appears.
Click [New
Inventory Item] at the bottom of the program window. The Add Inventory
Item form appears.
Click 
to
the right of the Product field.
The Select Product form appears.
Expand the categories/subcategories as outlined in Set Product and Inventory Tab Display Options. Select the target product, and click [OK] to return to the Add Inventory Item form.
Fill in the rest of the Add Inventory Item form as required. Pay special attention to the following:
Enter a unique identifier for the product in the Inventory # field, or allow RentMaster™ to automatically generate an identifier for you. If you have inventory in the system, then RentMaster™ will automatically add an increment of "1" to the last inventory item added. For example, if the code of the previously entered product was "FA01," then RentMaster™ will automatically apply a code of "FA02" to the newly entered inventory item
By default, every inventory item is marked as available for rent. If you do not want an inventory item to be available for rent, then click to un-check the Available for Rent checkbox in the Status field.
Click [OK] to save your changes and close the form.

Optional: Generate an Orders by Inventory Item Report for the target item as outlined in Generate Inventory Reports. In the pop-up alert, click [No] to view all orders associated with the item. If orders contain the item, then mark the item as unavailable for rent instead of deleting it (see NOTE above). If not, then continue to Step #3 below.
Select the inventory item to delete. Click [Deleted Selected] at the bottom of the program window.
One of the following will occur:
A pop-up alert notifies you that the inventory item cannot be deleted because it is associated with a new or old order or quote. Click [OK] to close the alert, and mark the item as unavailable for rent instead (see NOTE above)
A pop-up alert asks you to confirm the deletion. Click [Yes].
