# stockCard

query · in the family [Reading your records](/reference/reading-your-records/)

## What it does

One item’s full stock story at a location — every movement, in order.

The Stock Card: one InventoryItem's posted movement entries, NEWEST-FIRST + bounded (limit defaults 50, clamps 1..200; before = an EXCLUSIVE upper entry-id bound — v7 ids are time-ordered, the older-page cursor). Voided entries excluded. Requires authentication; the II is tenant-scoped server-side.

## What happens

Reads only — the audit view of how the on-hand got here.

## Arguments

| Name | Type | Required | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `inventoryItemId` | [ID](/types/#scalars) `ID!` | yes | No further notes. |
| `limit` | [Int](/types/#scalars) | no | How many records to answer at most; a page may hold fewer. |
| `before` | [ID](/types/#scalars) | no | No further notes. |

## Returns

[InventoryEntry](/types/InventoryEntry/) `[InventoryEntry!]!` — ONE posted Stock-Card movement fact: the magnitude rides quantity (POSITIVE), the direction rides fromBucket/toBucket (the classic in/out card form; a bucket balance = sum of to minus sum of from). sysId-LESS (the class); IMMUTABLE — NO update or doom op exists; posted ONLY by the movement mutations in ONE transaction with the II cache stamp.
