# Inventory Workflow

Inventory management in Nayax follows a four-step sequence where each step must be completed before the next.

1. **[Create Product Groups](/docs/manage-data-operations/lynx-api/inventory-management/create-product-group)**: Group products into logical categories such as "Beverages," "Snacks," or "Confectionery" to organize your catalog.
2. **[Create Products](/docs/manage-data-operations/lynx-api/inventory-management/create-products)**: Add individual items to the operator’s catalog with details like product name, price, and group association.
3. **[Map Products to Machines](/docs/manage-data-operations/lynx-api/inventory-management/machine-products-1)**: Assign products to each machine’s bins or selections to define its layout and track available stock.
4. **[Pick Lists](/docs/manage-data-operations/lynx-api/inventory-management/pick-lists)**: Create a restocking list that identifies the products and quantities needed from the warehouse for each machine.

<Warning>
  **Products and Operators**

  Product groups and their products are directly associated to an operator, and cannot be added to other operators.
</Warning>

Once the workflow is complete, see [Pick List Actions](/docs/manage-data-operations/lynx-api/inventory-management/pick-list-actions) for how to update, retrieve, or delete existing pick lists.
