I'd rather create a dedicated inventory script. It should then be spawn off the main login script in order to run asynchronously or can alternatively be pushed/scheduled by an admin script.

The script would have to check whether an entry alreayd exist and only update fields that have changed, maybe even with an admin email denoting the change.

Also, when using some kind of SQL Server database, I'd rather implement a transaction-based update in order to prevent data corruption whne multiple clients try to write to the database at the same time.
