Work with the inventory list

You can view a list of every item you have at any of your agency's locations, and quickly scan an item for its current usable and unusable stock, par levels, and stock coming in from transfers and orders. You can also quickly view the total quantity of the item across all the agency's locations, and expand that total to see the breakdown of that quantity in each location that holds stock in the item. When necessary, you can place a transfer request or item order for items in the list.

    1. Do one of the following.

      • (If you are already working in the ESO Suite) Click the Home icon in the upper left corner of the screen.

        1. In a web browser, go to https://www.esosuite.net/EsoSuite.

          The ESO Suite login screen appears.

        2. Enter your user name, password, and agency name, then click Let's Go.

          If MFA is enabled, the Multi-factor authentication dialog box appears, displaying one or more methods you can use to verify your login credentials. The number of methods that appear in the dialog box depends on what MFA methods your ESO Suite administrators enabled in the Admin module.

        3. (If the Multi-factor authentication dialog box appears) Depending on which buttons appear in the dialog box, verify your login in one of the following ways.

          1. Click MFA verification via authenticator app.

            The dialog box updates with boxes for entering the numbers of the authentication code, and the ESO Suite sends an authentication code to the authenticator application installed on your device.

          2. Open your authenticator application and note the authentication code currently displayed.

          3. Enter the authentication code displayed in the authenticator application.

          4. Click Log In.

          SMS

          1. Click MFA verification via SMS.

            The dialog box updates with boxes for entering the numbers of the authentication code, and the ESO Suite sends an authentication code to the phone number recorded in your PM records and identified with MFA codes.

          2. Enter the authentication code sent to your MFA-registered phone number.

          3. Click Log In.

          1. Click MFA verification via email.

            The dialog box updates with boxes for entering the numbers of the authentication code, and the ESO Suite sends an authentication code to your agency or department email address, recorded in your PM records.

      Note: If MFA is enabled, you can access and manage your MFA options through the PM module, on the Settings > Account page, as described in Manage a user account. If your agency or department has enabled MFA but has not purchased the full-featured version of the PM module, you can access your own MFA settings by clicking Change my Multi-Factor Authentication settings on the landing screen, then using the Settings > Account page that appears. If your agency has not enabled MFA, the Change my Multi-Factor Authentication settings link does not appear on the landing screen.

    2. On the top side of the home screen, click Inventory.

      If your screen or browser window is too narrow to display all your agency's ESO Suite module icons, the More Apps icon appears on the right side of the icon bar. If you click this icon, a menu appears containing additional module icons.

      The Inventory module opens, displaying the Action now page.

      Click graphics
      to open them.

       

       

  2. In the upper left corner of the screen, click the Inventory list icon.

    The Inventory list page appears, displaying a listing of every item in your agency's item catalog at the location selected in the upper right corner of the page, from the Viewing menu. The page contains information about the number or quantity of each item currently in the inventory at that location, the min and max par levels for that locations, and so forth.

  3. In the upper right corner of the page, from the Viewing menu, choose the location whose item list you want to work with.

    • At the top of the menu, in the search field, type the combination of characters you want to search the options for.

      As you type each character, the list of menu options reduces to only those whose names contain that combination of characters.

    The item list updates to display that location's inventory information.

  4. You can control how much data appears on the page, search for items in the entire list, search individual columns, sort and filter column contents, hide and display columns, and so forth.

    • Depending on what data you want to view on the page, do one or more of the following.

      On the left side of the page, the Refine by box lists the categories and sub-categories of items you can choose to display on the Inventory list page. The items are organized into two major categories: Medications and Medical Supplies. Further down in the box, the categories are broken into sub-categories, such as (medications) Controlled, (medical supplies) Airway, Bandaging, and so forth. You can expand and contract the category and sub-category listings in the box as needed, to focus only on the ones you want to work with.

          

      1. Depending on what information you want to view on the page, do one or more of the following.

        • At the top of the Refine by box, in the Categories drop-down, clear the check box for the category of items you do not want to display on the page.

          The sub-category listing for the category you cleared disappears from the Refine by box, The item counter on the left above the list updates to indicate how many items are still included in the list, and the list updates to remove the items in that category from the page.

              

          You can restore the listing of category items by selecting the check box you cleared.

        1. (If the category of items you want to work with does not appear in the Refine by box) At the top of the Refine by box, in the Categories drop-down, select the check box for the category of items you want to work with.

          The sub-categories in that category appear in the Refine by box, The item counter on the left above the list updates to indicate how many items are still included in the list, and the list updates to add the items in that category to the page.

        2. In the sub-category of items you want to filter, select the check boxes for the types of items you want to display in the list, and clear the check boxes for the types of items you do not want to display.

          Example: You want to filter the list to display items related to airway, bandaging, and IV therapies. In the Refine by box, under Categories, you would select Medical Supplies, then in the Medical Supplies Type drop-down, you would select the Airway, Bandaging, and IV Therapy sub-categories. The item counter on the left above the list updates to indicate how many items are still included in the list, and the list updates to display only the items in that category from the page.

        1. Above the Refine by box, click Hide filters to remove the filter list from the page.

          The Refine by box disappears from the page, the columns widen to use the additional space available, and the Hide filters button is renamed Show filters.

        2. (If you hid the Refine by box) Above the list, click Show filters to return the filter list to the page.

          The Refine by box reappears on the page, and the Show filters button is renamed Hide filters.

      • Above the list of items, on the left side, from Viewing number items per page, choose the number of items you want to display on the page.

      You can search the entire list for a specific combination of characters, regardless of what column the data appears in. The search includes only items not already added to the list. This search includes the item name and any agency "preferred names" the Inventory module administrator configured for items on the Settings pages.

      Example: If you perform a full-list search for 500, 26 results would return because the search looks at multiple data points, including the preferred name and data that is not displayed on the page.

      The search does not include numerical values from the other columns on the page.

      • Above the list of items, on the right side, in the Search list field, type the combination of characters you want to search the entire list for.

        As you type each character, the list of items on the page reduces to only those whose names or values contain that combination of characters.

        Example: If you typed the characters Ab, the entire list reduces to display only the items whose names or values contain these characters.

      The text that appears in the Item column is a combination of multiple pieces of data. The text in bold characters is the name of the medicine, ingredient, or medical supply item. If your Inventory module administrator had configured any agency "preferred names" for items on the Settings pages, those names replace the default medicine or medical supply item names. The original (default) names for items still appear as the lighter text below the bold item names. These original names are particularly important for medicines, as these names include dosage and strength information, which can reduce mistakes that might be introduced from preferred names.

      Note: While the Item column can display multiple pieces of data grouped together, the Item column search can only search on the ingredient, medical supply, or preferred names.

      Example: If you perform a full-list search for 500, 26 results would return because the search looks at multiple data points, including the preferred name and data that is not displayed on the page. If you perform a search for 500 at the top of the Item column, no results are found because the column search only looks at ingredient, medical supply, or preferred name, not the strength or dosage information also appearing in the Item column.

      • At the top of the column you want to search, in Search, type the combination of characters you want to search the entire list for.

        As you type each character, the list of items in the column reduces to only those whose names or values contain that combination of characters.

        Example: If you typed the characters ab, the entire list reduces to display only the items that contain the ab character combination in the ingredient name or medical supply name.

      1. At the top of the Item and Status columns, click the column sort () icon.

        The ascending values () icon appears and the column sorts from A–Z, or from 1 to the highest numerical value.

      2. Click the ascending values icon to sort the list into descending order.

        The descending values () icon appears and the column sorts from Z–A, or from the highest numerical value to 1.

      • At the top of the Status column, click the menu and choose an option to filter the list with.

        Only the items whose values in those columns match the option you selected appear in the list.

      You can decide which columns of data you want to display on the page and which columns you do not need, and hide the unnecessary columns.  You can also redisplay any columns you hid in past.

      1. Above the list of items, on the right side, click the Show/Hide columns menu.

      2. (Optional) In the blank (search) field at the top of the menu, type the combination of characters you want to search the entire list for.

        As you type each character, the list of options in the menu reduces to only those whose names contain that combination of characters.

        Example: If you typed the characters Or, the list reduces to only the options that contain those characters.

      3. In the menu, select the check boxes for columns you want to display on the page, and clear the check boxes for columns you want to hide.

        Only the columns you selected remain visible on the page.

        Example: If your agency decides it does not need to know how many unusable items it has at a glance, you do not need to display the Unusable column on the page. If you clear the check box for the Unusable option in the menu, the Unusable column disappears from the page.

            

  5. Work with the inventory at the selected location in any of the following ways.

    When inventory items become damaged, spoiled, or are past their expiration date, you need to discard them and update the quantity available in the Inventory module accordingly. This process lets you capture historic audit trail or reportable information. You can also update the count of an item quantity if an incorrect quantity was entered during stock checks, or when transferring items between locations.

    1. In the item row you want to work with, in the Usable column, click the numerical value.

      A drop-down appears, listing information about that item at this location, including lot number and expiration date (if applicable), the quantity of the item on hand, and what sublocation the item is stored in.

    2. In the lower right corner of the drop-down, click Edit.

      The Edit item dialog box appears, and information about the current item quantities appears at the top of the dialog box.

    3. Depending on what you want to accomplish, do one of the following.

      1. Under Are you removing items or updating the quantity?, choose Removing items from inventory.

        Additional fields related to removing items from the inventory appear in the right pane. The number of fields that appear depend on whether or not you are removing a controlled medication, or an uncontrolled medication or medical supply item.

            

      2. Depending on the item you are working with, do one of the following.

        1. Under How many are you removing from inventory?, in Items, type the quantity of items you need to discard.

        2. For Please let us know why you are removing these items, select the option that describes the reason you need to discard the items.

          Example: Someone dropped a box of vials and they smashed, and so can not be used. You would need to update the Inventory module because this box of vials has been swept up and discarded. In this type of situation, you would choose Damaged from the menu.

          If you choose Something else, the Brief description box appears in the dialog box.

        3. In Brief description, type an explanation for why the item needs to be discarded.

        4. Under When are you removing these items from inventory?, click the calendar icon on the right end of the field and select the appropriate date from the calendar that appears.

        5. If it is a medical supply item, your agency may want to donate it to a training class or secondary school outside the agency. In this case, you should note this information for audit trail purposes.

          Note: Uncontrolled medications are not donated, but may be transferred outside the agency for disposal.

          • In If you are choosing to send these items elsewhere let us know (optional), type the name of the person or organization the items were given or sent to.

        6. In the lower right corner of the dialog box, click Remove (number) medication name.

          The dialog box closes, and in the upper right corner of the page, a Success message briefly appears.

          On the Inventory list page the item's row, the values in the Usable and All locations columns update to reflect the change to that item's available quantities.

          1. In National drug code number, type the NDC number for the medication.

            The NDC is a unique 11- to 13-digit, three-segment number that serves as the FDA's identifier for human drugs in the United States. You can find this code on all non-prescription (over-the-counter) and prescription medication packages, and medication inserts in the U.S.

          2. (If the NDC is not available) In DEA controlled substances code number, type the DEA controlled substances code number for the medication.

            The DEA is a United States federal law enforcement agency under the U.S. Department of Justice, tasked with combating illicit drug trafficking and distribution within the U.S. The controlled substances code number is a number assigned to drugs listed on the schedules created by the US CSA.

            Each chemical/drug on one of the schedules is assigned an ACSCN. The code number is used on various documents used in administration of the system mandated by the CSA. The CSA is the statute establishing federal U.S. drug policy under which the manufacture, importation, possession, use, and distribution of certain substances is regulated.

          1. Under How many are you removing from inventory?, in Items, type the quantity of items you need to discard.

            Under Tell us how much you are wasting per item, a table with the same number of rows as quantity of items appears.

            Example: If you entered 2, a table of two rows appears.

          2. For each row in the table, do one of the following.

            • Choose All to indicate that all of the medication was wasted

            • In Amount wasted if different, type the volume that was actually wasted.

              Example: You only had to administer part of a prefilled syringe of medication to treat the patient.  Some of the medication remained in the syringe, but can not be used to treat a different patient.

          1. Under Please record date and time of removal, indicate the date the medication was wasted, in one of these ways.

            • Click Today to use the current date.

    It is useful to look up which of the agency's locations has an item in stock, so that you know which locations you can transfer stock from to replenish the item for the location you are working with. This capability is particularly useful for agencies that use a hub-and-spoke inventory model for restocking locations.

    1. In the item row you want to work with, in the All locations column, click the numerical value.

      A drop-down appears, listing all locations that currently have that item in stock.

    2. In the drop-down, click Viewing and choose the location you want to look up, to see what its current stock of that item is.

      The columns to the right of Viewing update to display information about the item at the selected location.

    If a location is running low or completely out of a particular item, you can request to have more of that item transferred from another location which has some available to send. You can also request a transfer for an item that has inventory that is about to expire or which has already expired, or of which the location has an oversupply of. Items which are nearing their expiration date can be sent to other locations that use that item more frequently, and items that have already expired need to be sent to a location that can dispose of them correctly.

    1. On the right end of the row for the item you want to work with, click Actions, then choose Add to transfer from the menu that appears.

      The Add to new transfer dialog box appears, with the Restock more bookmark selected in the left pane. In the right pane, the item name, and the number of usable, unusable, min, and max par currently available for the item at the location that will send the item.

        • At the top of the menu, in the search field, type the combination of characters you want to search the options for.

          As you type each character, the list of menu options reduces to only those whose names contain that combination of characters.

      2. In the right pane, in How many, type the number of the item you want to transfer from the providing location to the requesting location.

        The Add items (number) to transfer button updates to confirm the number of items you specified to transfer

      3. From Sublocation, choose the sublocation in within this location, where you want the transferred items to be stored.

      4. (If you want to divide the item received up among multiple locations) Click Add another sublocation.

        Example: You will restock 10 boxes of airway adhesive, and you want to stock five boxes in an ambulance, and the other five in a hospital store room.

        A new row appears in the table.

      5. Repeat the previous steps to specify the quantity of items you will stock in the additional location, and location/sublocation you will stock it in.

      6. (If necessary) Click Remove to delete a row in the quantity and location table.

        The Inventory module removes the row from the table.

      7. Repeat the previous steps as many times as needed to divide the item you are restocking in different locations.

        The Add items (number) to transfer button updates to confirm the number of items you specified to transfer

      A confirmation message appears in the upper right corner of the page, and the number on the Items you have added tab increments by one to indicate that you have added an item from the Suggested items tab to the transfer you are drafting.

      Note: Only the items listed on the Items you have added tab are included in the transfer when you submit it.

    If none of the other locations have items they can transfer to supply the location you are working with, you can order more new stock from an external vendor.

    1. On the right end of the row for the item you want to work with, click Actions, then choose Add to order from the menu that appears.

      The Add to a purchase order dialog box appears.  At the top of the dialog box, the item's name, and the number of usable, unusable, min, and max par currently available for the item at the location appears. In the rest of the dialog box, product details and matches among vendors integrated with your agency or department appear.

          

      The contents that appear in the dialog box under Choose products and quantities depends on whether your agency or department is integrated with one or more vendors or not. If it is integrated, and if any of the vendors carries that item, information about the item, its price, available quantities, and (if available) a picture of the item appears in the dialog box. If your agency or department is not integrated with a vendor, or if the item is not carried by integrated vendors, the dialog box displays the ESO logo for the product image, and a short statement that no specific product details are available.

      Information on setting up an integration with an external vendor is available in Integrate with vendors for ordering. Information on the item's settings page is available in Specify item details.

    2. The vendor may carry competing brands for the same item, and in different quantities and at different prices.

      Example: For 5” x 9” abdominal pads, the vendor Bound Tree offers pads made by Dukal, Medline Industries, Med Plus Services USA, Curaplex, Dynarex Corporation, Medsource International, and Honeywell Safety Production USA. Each of these manufacturers offer the pads in boxes, cases, packs, individually, and so forth, and the prices vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.

        The icon changes to an expand (v) icon, and the section contracts to make it easier to see the remaining sections of the dialog box.

    3. If an integrated vendor does not currently have stock in the item your agency or department needs, or if your department is not integrated with any vendors, you can order stock from non-integrated vendors.

      1. (If necessary) On the right side of the Request quantities to order from non-integrated vendors section heading, click the expand (v) icon, to open the display the section.
