Updated over 3 weeks ago

Aliquot's system meters for inventory let you monitor and measure usage and consumption. You can create system meters tailored to your specific needs, including alerts.

Accessing: System Meters

  1. Log into Aliquot: Open the Aliquot Software Application.

  2. Navigate to Inventory: Go to the Inventory section.

  3. Select “System Meters”: Click on the “System Meters” option to display all system meters set up.

Clicking System Meters lists out current customer system meters.

  • Each meter will be listed out, with customer name and system repeated for each system meter under them.

  • Location is the system meter is located.

  • Max daily Total is the amount permissible to use each day.

  • Unit of Measurement selected.

Max Daily Total limits the use of inventory used by day. Customize this for what you need. Some examples:
Example A: Chemicals dangerous at higher levels may need specific dilution levels.

Example B: Overuse may clog a system.

Example C: Adding in more product may have less impact (diminishing returns) and require different steps.

Example D: System may not be able to handle so much volume.

To create a meter, fill out the Select a System filter down to the System layer.


  • List out the Location/Description (required).

  • List the Max Average Daily Use (required).

  • Select Unit of Measurement (required).
