How do I setup inventory alerts?

talech can alert you when the quantity of an item is low or when the item has gone out-of-stock. The register application can notify employees when adding a low or out-of-stock item to an order as well as notify the account owner and designated employees with a daily email containing all items that are below their warning threshold.

This feature can also help to build purchase orders when these items are running low.
