| I have a suggestion which would help the search catalogue feature enormously
(from my point of view). If I am searching to identify a part in a easily recognized
colour - say white or black then I am looking at nearly all the categories that
exist to go through and unless I am quite lucky to either remember or guess I
would have to go through all of them. What if instead of just a multi column
list there were check boxes next to each category and you could choose all or
a number of to include in your search. This would cut down the time spe4nt in
trying to find the product.
If you know the category fine then go straight to it and browse the items until
you find it, but if you do not, then finding it becomes quite long winded and
tedious as well as time consuming. Hence mine and a lot of other peoples use
of the forum for identification.
Anybody else agree?

| We have commented on this on several occasions but events over the last couple
of weeks means it has to be re-stated.
We need a much stronger inventory system on Bricklink. A transaction log of inventory
movements is essential. Too many things keep suggesting there are problems with
the current system.
We have an outside system which helps us to keep track of what we add and what
we remove (a reflection of sales, and purchases, parting-out etc.); hence we
can track individual items by item, colour and condition - where they came from;
who bought them etc. This has yet to balance with our Bricklink inventory and
we cannot understand why. Short of doing a complete inventory (and that on 200k+
parts is very time consuming and problematic), we cannot understand the differences
that continue to happen.
We have turned on all the features that currently exist in the system to help
with the tracking of stock movements and as we process all orders, we double
check the items left and where appropriate make adjustments. But even those adjustments
do not seem to bring things to being correct. Lots and lots of examples of the
problems this has been causing and we are sure others are experiencing this as
well.
A stock movements log/report could help to resolve these issues not only for
us but for all stores. As we have a SQL database behind the UI, this is not a
difficult thing to create or make available. If the development team behind the
work is listening, please ensure this is a very high priority on the list of
required features. As inventories grow and get more complex (wider variety of
parts) it is more than essential to have good controls and systems in place.
When we have posted this as a suggestion in the past, the majority of people
who have commented have agreed that this is an important feature that needs to
be added. We hope that view continues.

| Couple of things which would certainly help us with regards to the set inventories.
1. A by category summary at the end (Make this an option to display/print)
2. A 2nd level sort Sort by part and then colour
There are a wide, no very wide range, of improvements that we would like see
made to inventory and inventory control, but perhaps this isn't the place
to put those forward.
