We have introduced improvements designed to create a smoother experience, allowing for more intuitive and efficient navigation throughout the interface.

From now on, you can:

1. Log in to the online platform  C-sar.
2. Navigate to the (Green) Inventory on the main menu bar. You will be directed to the (Green) Inventory overview page. 

One of the most significant enhancements in the (Green) Inventory overview page is the expanded default display of information:

• The ID tag and Name are merged into a single column but will be separated upon data export.
• The Export button is always visible but only enabled when green lots are selected for export.
