Inventory Tracking
MineMarket's supply chain model enables users to track quality, quantity and contributors from 'in situ' to shipment and beyond for both bulk and discrete units. MineMarket provides detailed 3D stockpile modelling and blend optimisation to support stockyard management and the production and demand planning capability links it all together.

How do Other MineMarket Modules Impact Inventory Tracking?
Transportation and Logistics impacts inventory tracking:
- If you use despatches to move bulk materials and discrete units between locations, the loading and unloading transactions and movements, and back calculations from tonnage corrections and draft surveys impact stock levels.
- You can assign Equipment to bulk material transactions.
- Transport Operators and Despatches by Vessel (Shipments) impact supply and demand plans.
Sales and Marketing impacts inventory tracking:
- You can use specifications of Despatch Orders to define blend requirements.
- You can include despatch orders in Production and Demand Planning.
- You can use Tolling to manage material containing metal (one or more valuable analytes) on behalf of another organisation.
System Administration impacts inventory tracking:
- Units of Measure define units, conversion factors and numbers of decimals for rounding.
- Analyte Measurement Basis may include non-default bases for entering samples.
- Status Definitions may control the editability and selectability of discrete units, transaction editor history, samples, plans and reconciliations.
- User Preferences and Settings may impact object names, date formats, traceability displays, and settings for contributors, samples and 3D stockpile modelling.
- System Settings and Maintenance may impact planning settings.
- Domains may limit the visibility of objects.
- Security rights for User Groups may limit who can complete which activities in MineMarket.
- Scripting may impact which fields are required and what happens when objects are saved.
