Simplify operations with Sage Intacct Inventory Management

Inventory control is one of the most critical components of a company’s profitability and customer satisfaction. Knowing what you have, where it is, and what it’s worth directly impacts your financial health. Sage Intacct Inventory Management offers real-time automation and visibility across your supply chain, helping businesses manage stock efficiently from procurement to fulfillment.

For organizations with more complex needs—such as advanced manufacturing, warehouse automation, or multi-site distribution—Sage Distribution and Manufacturing Operations (SDMO) builds on these capabilities, extending Intacct’s financial management foundation into a full operational solution. Together, they enable growing businesses to unify finance, distribution, and production data on one modern cloud platform. In this blog, we’ll explore how Sage Intacct Inventory Management helps businesses gain tighter control over their inventory and improve financial accuracy.

Sage Intacct Inventory Management is a cloud-based module designed to help organizations maintain optimal stock levels, manage inventory across multiple locations, and gain real-time insight into the value of their goods. It connects seamlessly with purchasing, order entry, and accounting modules to ensure your inventory data flows automatically throughout the system.

Whether you are managing raw materials, finished goods, or non-inventory items, Sage Intacct gives you full control over every stage of the inventory lifecycle—from receipts and transfers to valuation and costing.

At its core, Sage Intacct Inventory Management helps you answer four critical questions:

• What do you have? Track items with detailed records including descriptions, specifications, and custom attributes
• How much do you have? Monitor stock levels in real-time across all locations with automated alerts
