Granted, and all good points, but they weren't listed in the original question, so it gives a better idea of what you are looking for.

No, I was trying to explain that an "inventory system" deals with things way outside the scope of something like gnucash. Gnucash is handling what is known as the "general ledger" portion of an overall business system.

In my use of gnucash (for non-profit organizations) it proved adequate for dealing with "inventory" because this was VERY limited. None of the organizations was doing much more that required inventory than selling and/or giving to volunteers "swag" like organizational tee shirts, mugs, etc. Just needed to track well enough to be able to produce "sales", :"cost of goods sold", and "recognition expense" (for the 990-EZ) and never more than a few batches (FIFO to get cost).and never more than one new batch per year of that.

But would be totally inadequate for a business that was selling goods, hundreds of different things, each with batches.
