Inventory Sheet Instructions

The purpose of the Inventory Sheet is to help Sales Staff determine the correct price for an untagged item. It also helps the Vendor Sales committee identify owners of illegible or incorrect tags.

Keep legibility in mind when filling out sheets.

The sheets are filled out by the LMCA vendors before the show. They must be received by the start of the show. Blank inventory sheets are available here.

Description of fields on the form:

Member Code: A unique number assigned by show chair (a letter followed by a number) dedicated to each artist.

Inventory Number: A unique number assigned to each item or group of items of the same description and price. The same inventory number cannot be used for items that have different descriptions or different prices. Conversely, if you have several items of the same description and price, they may all have the same inventory number on the Inventory Sheet. If you have several items of the same description and price but choose to use inventory numbers in numerical order, they may be listed on one line of the sheet using the numeric range (e.g. 15-22) in the inventory number column.

Quantity: This can be left blank if the quantity is 1. Quantity can be approximate.

Retail Price: The price the sales table is to charge for the item.

Description of the Item: Description of the item that would help the Sales Table or Vendor Sales match the item to the Inventory Sheet for pricing if the tag is lost.

Unique products and/or inventory numbers added after the start of the show require an additional or updated sheet.

If you add items of the same inventory number after the start of the show, the Inventory Sheet does not need to be updated.
