#### **Toggle to Show/Hide Out-of-Stock Inventory**

Users can now toggle to show or hide out of stock inventory on the Inventory Management screen to avoid sifting through items that are not currently available in the Source Inventory, providing for a more efficient workflow. 

![hide out of stock zoomed in](https://support.pantrysoft.com/hs-fs/hubfs/hide%20out%20of%20stock%20zoomed%20in.png?width=670&height=250&name=hide%20out%20of%20stock%20zoomed%20in.png)

**How to access:**Inventory \> Inventory Management 

**Details:**

- To hide inventory items that are out of stock in the Source Inventory, simply toggle to activate the “Hide Out of Stock” filter. When activated, the toggle appears darker:  
  ![hide out of stock enabled](https://support.pantrysoft.com/hs-fs/hubfs/hide%20out%20of%20stock%20enabled.png?width=670&height=231&name=hide%20out%20of%20stock%20enabled.png)
- This feature is functional for inventory transactions that have a Source Inventory.  
    - *Those transaction types can include: Transfers, Adjustments, Distributions, Group Management and Trash*
- This feature is disabled for a Receives Transaction type, as the Source Inventory level is irrelevant.
