Blank Stock Inventory Software

Awards shops carry hundreds of fragile blanks: walnut plaques, K9 crystal obelisks, acrylic uprights, brass sheet.

EngraveDesk maps each SKU to an aisle, shelf, and bin so staff find it without tearing through the back room.

• ✓Organize by substrate, dimensions, bevel finish, and vendor catalog number.
• ✓Count showroom shelves, main warehouse bins, and overflow separately.
• ✓See on-hand, reserved, and available as three numbers, not one guess.

Quoting three banquets without holding the blanks is how production day turns into a scramble.

The signed estimate reserves what the job needs, and reserved units stop showing up as sellable.

• ✓Hold plaques, medals, and plates as orders confirm.
• ✓Front-desk staff can't sell stock already promised to a custom job.
• ✓Cancelled events release their blanks back to available.
• ✓Watch demand climb ahead of graduation and tournament season.

Tracking lead times across several wholesale catalogs by hand is where ordering slips.

Set a reorder point and a safety quantity per SKU; EngraveDesk drafts a consolidated purchase order when stock dips under.

• ✓Group low-stock parts by supplier to reach freight tiers.
• ✓Send POs to vendors without retyping line items.
• ✓Match expected delivery dates to the banquet calendar.

Boxes that sit un-checked in the workshop are how counts drift.

Scan the vendor barcode on arrival, then log damaged or scrapped blanks against a defect code.

• ✓Receiving updates bin counts on the spot.
• ✓Scrap and damage post to inventory and the books.
• ✓Export the year-end count for your accountant.
• ✓Keep an audit trail for every stock adjustment.
