Unclassified gear disappears at scale

Equipment that isn't classified is equipment that disappears at scale.

Stuck-in-truck inventory.

Gear leaves the warehouse and never gets reconciled. Trucks become rolling storage.

Mixed equipment categories.

Network devices, segmentable items, and consumables all need different tracking.

Wrong gear, wrong job.

Truck rolls without the right equipment, then rolls again. That's two days of margin.

Sonar's Inventory module covers Inventory Models, Network Inventory for devices, Segmentable Inventory for divisible stock, Consumables for generic items, and Manufacturer / Category organisation.

Purchasing to deprecation, one tracked lifecycle.

Sonar tracks equipment across its full lifecycle - from the purchase order through receiving, warehousing, field tracking, deployment to a subscriber, and eventual deprecation. Every stage updates the same record, so stock-on-hand is always accurate.

  • Purchasing and receiving tied to Purchase Orders
  • Warehouse to truck to premises tracking
  • Deprecation and retirement on the same record

Frequently asked

Common questions about inventory.

What types of inventory can Sonar track?
Three: Network Inventory for serialized devices, Segmentable Inventory for divisible stock like cable and fiber, and Consumables for low-detail generic items, each tracked the way that category actually behaves.
How is inventory organized in Sonar?
Inventory Models act as templates for the gear you stock, while Manufacturer Setup and Model Categories make the pool searchable and reportable by vendor and type.
Can Sonar tell me who has which equipment?
Yes. Device Assignees track ownership and responsibility per item, so the right technician is accountable for the right gear in the field.
How does receiving update inventory?
When connected with Purchase Orders, accepted receipts update the Inventory pool automatically, so stock-on-hand stays in sync with your system of record.
