Suggestions for a FOSS inventory management for a chemistry lab
Hey, so we have a chemistry lab in our university. We were looking into keeping an inventory of all the chemicals and equipment present there. Initially the plan was to just keep a spreadsheet, but I was interested in something more robust . Some features that would be nice to have:
- Cross platform: Linux, Windows, Android
- Simple interface
- Searching functionality
- Invoice management
- Tracking new orders of chemicals
All suggestions are welcome. Thanks!
Grocy could be useful, it is essentially an inventory tracker. Meant for pantries but it scales very well I think. Depending on lab size of course but if you were considering a spreadsheet than it should be more than sufficient I think.
Not a pantry or a chemical lab, but I'm planning to spin up a container later tonight because this is going to make things so much easier.
Thank you.
Maybe Orson's scientific notebook (https://orsn.io) could work. For basic spreadsheets it's cryptpad.fr or bust in my book
HomeBox is another possibility.
