Updating Items in the Inventory
Administrator access is required to make changes in the Master Inventory File. Thus, changes of
inventory are formally communicated by all CIMS users to the Administrator. It is important that
institutional rules and policies be enforced when changes in the inventory occur. Requirements should
include communication, authorization, and tracking procedures for any changes to the inventory, such as
when chemicals are moved from one lab to another, or when ownership of chemicals is transferred.
Developing an appropriate SOP is highly recommended. For security purposes, moving or making other
changes regarding certain chemicals should require additional specific authorization.
NOTE
Making changes to the inventory requires Administrator access. To ensure chemical security
and accountability, the number of individuals with Administrator access should be limited to
certain individuals who are properly trained and can be trusted with this responsibility.
Steps to update items in the inventory:
1) Find the name and barcode of the chemical to make changes
2) Update any information fields and click “Save.”
