Add-On: Advanced Inventory Manager

Advanced Inventory Manager adds custom inventory fields to WP Inventory Manager, so each kind of item can carry the information that actually describes it. A dishwasher is much different than a couch: the dishwasher may have fields such as height, width, and various control options, while a couch may have material, designer, and so on. Create as many inventory types as you need, give each one unlimited custom fields, and control the format of those fields (text, dropdown, radio buttons, and more). You can even go a step further and customize which fields display on the front end for each type.

Custom inventory fields at item creation

Defining a custom inventory type adds a step to the item creation process to ensure you’re entering the correct information. When you add new inventory, you’ll be prompted to select the type for the item before anything else. Then, all of the custom inventory fields you set for that type appear for you to enter, and nothing else. The Manage Inventory Items screen also gains a tab for each type, so a shop with guitars, amplifiers, and accessories can work on one kind of stock at a time.

Any inventory with a variety of item types can benefit from the Advanced Inventory Manager add-on: a rental fleet where vehicles and trailers need different details, a school tracking laptops alongside lab equipment, a church with both sound gear and furniture, or a store that sells instruments and lessons. Fields you add through the add-on work with the rest of the plugin, so they can be shown on the front end and, with the Advanced Search add-on, offered to visitors as filters. The documentation walks through creating your first type, or you can watch the demo on YouTube. Upgrade to total control over your inventory today!
