# How to check current stock levels and stock value

> The Items page shows each item's stock and status. Reports → Inventory shows every item with quantity, minimum, unit cost and value, and Reports → Low stock lists what is at or below its minimum. The Dashboard shows total stock value and the low-stock count.

Stock in Jogan is always current: it changes the instant a purchase, sale, production run or adjustment is saved. There is no end-of-day recalculation.

## Quick look: the Items page

Each row shows **In stock** with the quantity and a status badge (**In stock**, **Low stock**, **Out of stock**), plus cost and selling price. Search by name to find one item.

## The full picture: Reports → Inventory

A snapshot of every item with:

- **Quantity** on hand and the unit.
- **Minimum** and **Status**.
- **Unit cost**, the current weighted average.
- **Value**, quantity × unit cost, and the total across the workspace.

Use it before a busy period, at month-end, or whenever you want to know what your shelves are worth. See [How to read your reports](https://jogan.cloud/help/read-your-reports).

## What is running low: Reports → Low stock

Every item at or below its minimum stock. The same list appears on the Dashboard with a count in the **Low stock items** card. Set minimums on the items that stop you producing or selling. See [How to add your items](https://jogan.cloud/help/add-your-items).

## What is about to expire: Batches

Stock levels tell you how much; the **Batches** page tells you how old. See [How expiry tracking works](https://jogan.cloud/help/track-expiry-and-batches).

## The number looks wrong

Almost always a sale or a delivery was not recorded, or a recipe quantity is in the wrong unit. See [Why does my stock show the wrong amount?](https://jogan.cloud/help/stock-shows-wrong-amount).
