Purpose
Inventory is the showroom book. Use it to find units, switch gallery or list, filter by status, open a car, and add or edit when your role allows.
Where to open it
Portal path: /inventory
Nav: Inventory
Page title: Inventory
Who can use it
Everyone can view inventory. Administrator, Sales manager, and Sales rep can add or edit. Cost and margin stay hidden from Sales rep and Viewer.

- Cost and margin only appear for roles with cost visibility.
Look out for
The page title is Inventory. As Administrator you should see Add vehicle and seeded stock — Lamborghini, Ferrari, Porsche, McLaren, and Bentley. Add vehicle alone is the header; it is on screen while the lot is still skeletons.
