Scanning Module - Stock Check - Perform a Stock Check with Multiple Locations using a Scanner

Note: Stock Checks/Stock Counts are often performed within a specific stock pool/season to count how much inventory you have on hand (closing stock), of selected/ all products.

There are two main methods of performing a Stock Check. A rolling/cyclic stock take, and a physical stock take. The most common method is the Rolling/Cyclic Stock take. (of Selected Products).

Warning: You will need to ensure you, or your admin user have enabled the 'Stock Check' permissions within your user permissions. (as well as the Scanning permissions if not already enabled)

Tip: Watch our webinar recording that walks you through the Stock Check process:
