INVENTAR

What is this for?

With INVENTAR you manage your objects / articles that are rented out or used internally.

Examples:

  • Tech (lighting, sound, cables)
  • Furniture
  • Accessories

You can categorize items, maintain their status, store quantities, and optionally specify a daily price. Items can later be added directly to a contract from the VERTRAG plugin.


Typical day-to-day actions

  • Search, create, and maintain inventory
  • Filter by category
  • Set status (e.g., available, broken, in repair)
  • Manage categories & schemas

Step by step

1) Search for an item

1. Open Inventory → Items (/inventar/items).
2. Use the search field or category filter.

2) Create a new item

1. In the list, click "New".
2. Fill in the required fields:

  • Name
  • Category
  • Quantity
  • Status

3. Optional:

  • Price per day
  • Description / note

4. Save.

3) Edit an item

1. In the list, click the item → "Edit".
2. Save the changes.

4) Delete an item (soft-delete)

Deleted items are usually not hard-deleted, so history / existing contracts remain consistent.


Admin settings

Categories (/settings/admin/inventar/categories)

This is where you define the categories that can be selected in the inventory.

Examples:

  • Sound
  • Lighting
  • Stage
  • Cables

Actions:

  • Create a category
  • Rename a category (POST /categories/{name}/rename)
  • Delete a category (POST /categories/{name}/delete) – only possible when no items reference it anymore

Per-category schema (/settings/admin/inventar/categories/{name}/schema)

For each category you can define additional fields (e.g., "wattage" for lamps, "length" for cables). These then appear in the edit form of items in this category.

Global schema (/settings/admin/inventar/schema)

Controls system-wide identifiers (e.g., how inventory numbers are structured). If you don't need any special numbering logic, you can leave the default schema as is.


Frequently asked questions / problems

"I can't find an item"

  • Search for partial words.
  • Reset the filter (category to "All").
  • Check whether the item has been soft-deleted.

"Category can't be deleted"

  • Usually because items still reference it. Re-categorize the items first, then delete the category.

"Price per day isn't transferred to the contract"

  • Check whether a daily price is stored on the item.
  • In the contract, prices also depend on the contract configuration (see VERTRAG).

Notes

  • INVENTAR is closely tied to VERTRAG: through contract editing, items can be assigned directly.
  • For consumables, we recommend a separate category with a matching status workflow.
