1. What magic is this
Inventory Control Magic
2. What it can do
Items, consumables, materials, medicine, parts, or other tracked stock can be recorded with quantity, location, lot, expiry, and usage history.
3. Why use it
It turns inventory from guesswork into a structure that supports replenishment timing, expiry control, location discipline, and auditability.
4. Spell text
Treat item identity, quantity, storage location, lot, expiry, usage history, and replenishment threshold as one inventory model. Keep receiving, storing, consuming, wasting, and replenishment suggestion inside the same structure so that stock movement remains explainable. Allow replenishment, anomaly detection, reporting, and public ordering flows to connect later as separate spells.
