Stock Takes & Adjustments
Auditing Your Physical Inventory
No matter how good your software is, physical reality will eventually drift from digital records due to theft, damage, or mis-picks. You must conduct regular Stock Takes (audits) to realign the database.
Tutorial: Conducting a Cycle Count
- Navigate to Warehouse > Stock Takes.
- Click Start New Audit. Select the specific location (e.g., Aisle 4).
- The system generates a blind list of all products supposed to be in that Aisle.
- Warehouse staff use their mobile scanner to walk down the aisle, scanning every physical product they see.
- Once scanning is complete, the manager reviews the Variance Report.
- Clicking Approve Adjustments will update the system inventory to match the physical count, and automatically post the financial write-offs for missing goods to the accounting ledger.
