Overview
HandiFox allows tracking of inventory levels across multiple inventory sites. Each site represents a physical location where quantities on hand need to be tracked independently.
When you start working with HandiFox, there is only one site, Main, which by default contains the entirety of your stock.
You can create additional inventory sites in HandiFox and add inventory to them by transfers or QoH adjustments.
When HandiFox mobile app is installed on a new device and synchronized, the device is assigned to a specific site. Each device can only see or work with inventory present at its assigned site.
Site assignment can be changed in the web app (requires permission: Web Permissions → General → Device Manager) or in the mobile app itself (requires permission: Handheld Permissions → Admin → Switch Sites).
Managing Inventory Sites
Inventory sites can be created, modified and deleted in the web app, under General → Site Manager.
To create a site, click , enter site name and click Save.
To edit a site, click in the desired site’s row.
Finally, if you need to remove a site from the system, click .
Reviewing Quantities on Hand
Inventory levels can be reviewed across all sites in the web app, as well as on mobile devices.

Here you can also specify desired quantities and reorder points per each site by clicking Desired QOH and Reorder Points.
In the Mobile App
Go to Inventory → Item List to review inventory levels. The Item List shows item counts (where applicable) at the current site. You can highlight an item and tap View QOH to check its quantity at other sites.

Inventory Transfers
Inventory can be moved between sites through the use of Transfers.

Select or scan the items being transferred and enter their quantities. You can save your progress and continue entering the transfer later by tapping Save.
