What is inventory management?
Organizations have to manage an increasing number of digital services, both related to IT operations and other business areas. The service catalogue or CMBD is the function that manages the service lifecycle. Understanding how different services relate to each other and documenting the ownership of services and business areas is essential to managing changes in service provision without disruption.
Inventory management with Visionflow
Extensive inventory register
With VisionFlow, you get a system that manages all types of inventory within your organization. The inventory register or CMDB is easy to administer and can grow according to your needs. Everything becomes clear!
Build your database
The product tree is a database containing all your products, applications and assets that provides a good and clear overview and navigation of your products.
Define, categorize and manage
A product tree allows you to define, categorize and manage information about your services, components, products, configuration items (CI) and other assets in your organization.
Configure your own terminology
Do you use a different terminology than that normally used for inventory management? No problem. You can easily change the terminology to suit your organization and make your work easier.
Structure and adapt
The service catalogue provides a structured and flexible way to organize and present products and services. The service catalogue is flexible and easy to manage, allowing customers to build a service catalogue that reflects their industry without consulting efforts.
Support
Automating routine tasks and creating reminders to improve efficiency and give customers quick answers without the risk of something falling through the cracks.
The product tree contains all the links
In VisionFlow, the register visualizes smoothly in a searchable product tree. The information about each entity is structured in a tab system that makes it easy to distinguish information of different nature. You can easily link products and assets to cases, documents, contracts, knowledgebase articles, users and various templates already defined in the system and used elsewhere. No manual double work with VisionFlow.
