Abstract
Methods, systems, and arrangements enable point of use replenishment coupled with available centralized oversight. In accordance with certain embodiment(s), when inventory reaches a pre-set level, a code representative of the particular stock is input into a device. The device may be used to forward the code to a central database repository. From the central database repository, a purchase order may be sent to a pre-identified supplier. The supplier may thereafter ship the stock directly to the point of use, where a receipt and/or a code indicative of the new stock may be entered into the system (e.g., using the device). A centralized authority may be granted access to the central database repository to enable review, modification, configuration, etc. of all or a part of the total inventory situation. Notably, any or all of the transmissions and communications may be effectuated using the Internet and/or an Internet browser.
