The Linen Management module provides complete linen lifecycle management—receipt and quality inspection, inventory tracking, distribution and collection, washing and processing, and loss tracking. Real-time inventory visibility across all locations. Automated replenishment based on occupancy and consumption. Quality inspection with condition assessment. Linen loss analysis with cost tracking.
