How many SUP records need to be built for a 6-0 vicryl suture stored at three different OR locations?

In this scenario, only one SUP (stock usage pattern) record needs to be created for the 6-0 vicryl suture, despite the fact that it is stored at three different OR locations. This is because the SUP record is typically associated with the specific item (the suture in this case) rather than the location where the item is stored. The purpose of the SUP record is to manage inventory and track usage across different locations; however, it does not require multiple records for each storage location.

By creating a single SUP record, the inventory system can effectively monitor the use and replenishment of the suture regardless of which OR it is used in. It simplifies management and ensures consistency in data tracking. Therefore, having one SUP record for the 6-0 vicryl suture that is accessible from all three locations streamlines the process and avoids redundancy in record-keeping.
