## 🏗️ Modular Architecture
ScanLook uses a modular system designed to grow into a full WMS. Modules can be enabled/disabled per user.
### Current Modules:
- **Counts** - Cycle Counts and Physical Inventory
### Planned Modules:
- Shipping
- Receiving
- Transfers
- Production
### Module Access
- Admins assign modules to users via User Management
- Users only see modules they have access to on the home screen
- Route guards prevent URL bypassing

## 👥 User Roles

- Manage all admins
- Manage all users (admins and staff)

### Phase 1: Session Setup (Admin)
1. **Log in as admin**
2. **Create new count session**:
2. **Navigate to Admin Console**
3. **Create new count session**:
- Session name: "January 17, 2026 - Daily Cycle Count"
- Type: Cycle Count OR Full Physical Inventory
3. **Upload MASTER baseline** CSV from NetSuite:
4. **Upload MASTER baseline** CSV from NetSuite:
- Format: `Item, Description, Lot Number, Location, Bin Number, On Hand`
- Creates baseline version 1
4. Session status: **Active**
5. Counters can now begin
5. Session status: **Active**
6. Counters can now begin
### Phase 2: Counting (Staff)
1. **Log in as staff**
2. **Select active session**
3. **Scan location barcode** (e.g., R903B)
- System marks location "in progress"
- Shows: "Counting R903B"
4. **Scan lot barcode**
5. System checks lot against MASTER baseline:
2. **Select Counts module** from home screen
3. **Select active session**
4. **Start a new bin** - scan or enter bin number
5. **Scan lot barcode**
6. System checks lot against MASTER baseline:
- ✅ **MATCH**: Expected here, location correct
- ⚠️ **WRONG LOCATION**: Lot exists but system says different location
- ❌ **GHOST LOT**: Not in system at all
6. **Enter weight**
7. Save → returns to scan input (autofocus)
8. Repeat for all lots in location
9. Click **"Finish Location"**
- 🔵 **DUPLICATE**: Lot already scanned (same or different location)
7. **Enter weight**
8. Save → returns to scan input (autofocus)

### Blind Counting
### Duplicate Detection
- Counters don't see expected quantities
- Prevents bias
- Ensures honest count
- **Status 00**: First scan of lot (no duplicate)
- **Status 01**: Duplicate in same location by same user
- **Status 03**: Found in different location
- **Status 04**: Both same location duplicate AND different location
### Count Types
**Cycle Count:**
- Shows expected lots for the bin
- Staff can see what should be there
- Good for regular inventory checks
**Full Physical Inventory:**
- Blind count (no expected list shown)
- Staff only sees what they've scanned
- Missing lots determined after finalization
### Real-Time Dashboard

- Progress by location
- Active sessions with progress stats
- Location completion tracking
- Variance counts updating live
- Dual view (MASTER vs CURRENT) after refresh

## 🗂️ Database Schema
### Tables:
### Core Tables:
- **Users**: Authentication and role management
- **Modules**: Available system modules
- **UserModules**: Per-user module access
- **CountSessions**: Count session metadata
- **BaselineInventory_Master**: Morning baseline (never changes)
- **BaselineInventory_Current**: Refreshable baseline (soft delete)
- **LocationCounts**: Location-by-location progress
- **ScanEntries**: Every lot scan with dual status tracking
- **MissingLots**: Expected lots not found
- **BaselineInventory_Master**: Session-specific baseline (immutable)
- **BaselineInventory_Current**: Global refreshable baseline
- **LocationCounts**: Bin-by-bin progress tracking
- **ScanEntries**: Every lot scan with status tracking
- **MissingLots**: Expected lots not found after finalization
### Indexes:
Optimized for fast lookups on lot numbers, locations, and statuses.
### Key Relationships:
- Users → UserModules → Modules (many-to-many)
- CountSessions → BaselineInventory_Master (one-to-many)
- CountSessions → LocationCounts → ScanEntries (hierarchical)

## 🚧 Current Status: Phase 1 Complete (MVP)
## 🐳 Docker Deployment
### ✅ Implemented:
- User authentication (3 roles)
- Session creation
- MASTER baseline upload
- Location scanning
- Lot scanning with MASTER status
- Weight entry
- Basic dashboard
- Real-time progress tracking
- Mobile-optimized UI
```bash
# Build
docker build -t scanlook .
### 🔜 Next Phases:
- **Phase 2**: CURRENT baseline refresh & dual status recalculation
- **Phase 3**: Missing lot detection, enhanced dashboard
- **Phase 4**: Excel export with multiple tabs
- **Phase 5**: Data retention automation, user management
- **Phase 6**: Docker deployment

- Session management via Flask sessions
- SQL injection prevention (parameterized queries)
- Role-based access control
- Module-based access control with route guards
- Soft deletes preserve audit trail
