Each item's current value is the latest value recorded for it, for the whole holding.
Every value says:
- Where it came from — Entered by hand, Market feed, or Appraisal. Reports show this too, so an assessor can tell a market price from an estimate.
- What it measures — Estimated resale (what it would sell for), Replacement cost, Insured value, or Melt value.
- When — the date it was true as of. A badge shows how old it is.
Unvalued items
Items without a value are counted on the overview as needing one and listed separately — never treated as zero, which would quietly understate the total.
Market-priced items
Metals and crypto can follow the market: their value is recalculated whenever prices update. See Following the market.
Old values
Prices move; a figure more than a year old is flagged as stale in Catalog health. Set a reminder to revalue: Revaluation reminders.
