inventoriai

Inventoriai is a term used in several contexts to denote inventories or stock lists, particularly in Lithuanian-language usage where inventorius denotes an item list of goods or assets. The plural form inventoriai can refer to multiple inventories or to inventory records kept by organizations. In English-language texts, inventoriai is rarely used as a common noun, but it may appear in multilingual documents or as a proper name.

In business and logistics, an inventoriai (inventory) is a detailed record of items owned by an organization, including quantities, locations, and value. Inventories support asset management, financial reporting, and supply-chain planning. They are typically classified into categories such as raw materials, work-in-progress, finished goods, and maintenance, repair, and operations supplies. Regular counting and reconciliation help prevent discrepancies and losses.

Inventory management employs approaches such as perpetual inventories, periodic counts, and cycle counting. Technology—barcodes, RFID, and inventory management software—facilitates tracking, forecasting, and reordering. Common valuation methods include FIFO, LIFO, and weighted-average cost, applied to determine the cost of goods sold and remaining stock for financial statements.

In libraries, archives, and museums, inventories track collections, assets, and storage conditions, contributing to preservation, insurance, and access. Accurate inventoriai records support audits and compliance with regulatory standards.
