+Create Storable Products
+========================
+
+The first step to use the inventory application is to create products in
+your database via the menu *Master Data > Products*. Click the Create
+button and enter the name of your product.
+
+.. image:: media/initial_stock_01.png

+
+Inventory Adjustment for Multiple Products
+==========================================
+
+Once you have created all your *storable products*, you can create an
+*inventory adjustment* to determine their current stock level in Odoo.
+You therefore need to go to *Operations > Inventory Adjustments* and
+create a new one.
+
+.. image:: media/initial_stock_03.png
+    :align: center
+
+You have to enter a title for your *inventory adjustment* and you can
+then decide if you want to proceed to the *inventory adjustment* of
+all products or only some of them. For a first *inventory adjustment*,
+I suggest you to keep the *Products* field empty. You can then *Start
+Inventory*.
+
+.. image:: media/initial_stock_04.png

+
+If you already have some products in stock, Odoo will add the lines with
+the theoretical quantity currently in stock. You can also add new lines
+with your other products.
+
+.. image:: media/initial_stock_05.png
+    :align: center
+
+.. note::
+         If your products are tracked by Serial/Lot numbers, you will have an
+         additional column allowing you to specify those for the different units
+         added to the inventory adjustment.
+
+Odoo will highlight in red the lines for which there is a difference
+between the theoretical quantity on hand, which is automatically
+computed by the system, and the counted quantity you manually entered.
+Once all the necessary products have been entered, you can hit
+*Validate Inventory* and the quantities on hand of your different
+products will be updated.
+
+Inventory Adjustment for one Product
+====================================
+
+On each storable product, you have access to the *Update Quantity*
+button.
+
+.. image:: media/initial_stock_06.png
+    :align: center
+
+When clicking this button, you see the current stock you have for this
+product. You can edit the existing lines or create new ones to add stock
+of your product in different locations and/or add new serial/lot
+numbers.
+
+.. image:: media/initial_stock_07.png

+
+Once you come back to your product, you see that the quantity on hand as

+

+    :align: center
+
+.. note::
+         If you work with product variants, the quantity on hand will show you
+         the total quantity in stock for the product template, taking the
+         different variants into account.
+
+By default, the quantity on hand of the product form will show you the
+number of products that are part of your warehouse view location,
+meaning which are part of an internal type sub-location of this
+warehouse. It means that if you have any product in a location that
+isn’t under the main warehouse location, they won’t appear in the stock
+on hand stat button.
