First, a little vocabulary review! Field service inventory management comes with a full toolbox of features. You can find these features in Salesforce as tabs or related lists: - **Locations** are places, like warehouses, sites, or work vehicles, where inventory is stored. - **Product items** represent products in your inventory stored at a particular location, such as bolts stored in a warehouse. Each product item is associated with a product and a location in Salesforce. If a product is stored at multiple locations, the product will be tracked in a different product item for each location. - **Products required** are products that are needed to complete a work order or work order line item. - **Products consumed** are product items that were used to complete a work order, and are no longer in your inventory. - **Product item transactions** describe actions performed on a product item. They’re auto-generated records that help you track when a product item is replenished, consumed, or adjusted. - **Product requests** are orders for products, which you might create when stock is running low. - **Product request line items** are subdivisions of a product request. - **Product transfers** track the transfer of product items between inventory locations. - **Return orders** track the return or repair of products. - **Return order line items** are subdivisions of a return order. - **Serialized Product** are products that are serialized. Each serialized product has a serial number. - **Shipments** represent the shipment of product items between locations. Now that you’ve got the important terms under your belt, it’s time to configure your org for inventory management. - **[Customize Inventory Settings in Field Service](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.fs_parts_settings.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)** To control how your team manages inventory, customize page layouts and assign user permissions. - **[Create Inventory Locations for Field Service](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.fs_create_locations.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)** Locations are places, like warehouses, customer sites, or work vehicles, where inventory is stored for a field service operation.
