I agree that we should make sure that we have source of inventories
whenever possible. We do try, and encourage others, to put such things
in the comments section, but we haven't been pushing that... eventually,
it would be nice to add a field stating the source, and if the
inventory has been verified...
Current source "levels" would be:
- known incomplete set
- from instructions
- opened set, but thought complete
- from box
- MISB
perhaps I'll try to dig through our records, and try to fill in a
"Source:" entry in the comments.
