[FW][IMP] inventory: thd batch updates

Overview

This is a batch cherry pick of PR’s #2002, #1984, #1900, #1876, #1870, #1854, and #1824
I took the changes originally proposed in these PR’s and stacked them here on a fresh 15.0 base since they were all merge requests into 15.0.

Formatting updates

On top of the original changes proposed by @thomasdeleval, I went ahead and updated technicals for each affected RST file + associated images. Those changes are as follows in order to bring each doc up to standards:

  • fixed 100th character line breaks
  • added alt text to images with proper grammar
  • fixed indentations on RST tags
  • renamed images attached to respective RST files (when appropriate) to match new convention (usage_01.png —> uom-handling-vs-purchase.png), and updated RST links accordingly.
  • fixed some broken links + misnamed folders

Follow up items for review

I did not change any of the content other than what what the PRs originally suggested, however I think there are a number of improvements to be made around wording, grammar, and specificity of language.

Generally speaking, please consider the following suggestions in content review stage:

  • add missing :guilabel:'s 😈
  • wording/grammar: I caught a number of instances where the technical details were too wordy, vague, or the instruction got lost / wasn’t clear. Some words are strange like “hit” instead of “click” or “choose”.
  • headings: especially the h1 so they follow convention re:guidelines:headings
  • Consider rephrasing all hypothetical narratives (e.g. “imagine if…”). Would stick to third-person instructional w/ time order language, if possible. “What if” scenarios are more helpful when visually illustrated with video or long-form blog articles, however for software documentation, this will interrupt ability to skim and absorb instructions which are supposed to be clear and easy to find.
  • Similarly, would also reword/remove all first-person and second-person familiar statements and stick with third-person instructional.
  • images: check all for HD resolution, at or around 768 pixel breakpoint in width, and are compressed. Are there any images that need to be reshot?
  • images: are they actually showcasing the feature being written about? Some aren’t clear.
  • remove unnecessary images, or surround them with new blocks of descriptive copy so the writing is leading the document instead of the visuals re: guidlines:images
