Then John's approach would seem to be a good basis.  

Part Master table with all the info about a part - Autonumber ID,number,
description, unit cost, vendor, etc.  Location table  with FK to the Part
Master, and quantity.  

Third table for audit trail - date/time, user, location, old balance,
transaction quantity, new balance, audit reference (to note why the
transaction took place), standard cost, actual cost if they want to do
purchase price variance.

It is for distribution. How much they have, how much they use in a certain
location & if it goes below the minimum amount. They don't need anything
fancy; just to know how much is in each storage location.

I have a commercial product E-Z-MRP which does, among other things,
inventory tracking.  As you get further into it, feel free to contact me
off-line with your questions.  
 
You should also consider adding an audit trail of inventory transactions to
the db.
 
Is this for manufacturing, distribution, or retail?
