Besides stock you send to stores, you probably keep some copies yourself for signings, events and direct sales. Those appear in the **On Hand** section at the bottom of Inventory Manager.

## Where the numbers come from

On Hand isn't a separate list. It reads the quantities saved on each book's **Inventory** tab in Book Library, so there's only ever one copy of these numbers. Change them in either place and both stay the same.

Only formats with a quantity above zero are listed. The total number of units is shown at the top of the section.

## Add or update on-hand stock

From Inventory Manager:

1. In the left sidebar, click **Inventory Manager**.
2. In **On Hand**, click the row for the book. The book opens on its **Inventory** tab.
3. Update the quantities and save the book.

If a book isn't listed yet, it has no on-hand stock recorded. Open the book in Book Library, go to its **Inventory** tab, and add the quantity there.

## Filters

The book and pen name filters also apply to On Hand. The date buttons don't, because on-hand stock isn't tied to a date.

## Good to know

Logging a shipment doesn't reduce your on-hand quantities automatically. If the books you shipped came from your own stock, update the book's Inventory tab as well.
