inventory

List of stock

Inventory is a complete list of items, especially goods held by a business for sale or use.

A store's inventory includes everything on its shelves and in its warehouse.

To inventory something is to count and catalog it: We inventory the stockroom every quarter.

The word extends to any systematic accounting: a personal inventory of strengths and weaknesses.

When inventory runs low, supplies are nearly depleted.
