Where to go
Purchase / Stock Transfers / Stock Counts
Visible menus may vary with language, permissions, app version and shop configuration.Follow these steps
- Receive against a purchase order, select the receiving branch and check actual quantities and costs.
- Create a transfer, dispatch it at the source, then inspect and receive it at the destination. Dispatch and receipt are separate steps.
- Use a stock count, enter actual quantities and have an authorized user apply the variance. Do not overwrite live stock with an old export during sales.
- Record wastage with reasons, review low stock and schedule weekly checks. Keep receipt/transfer references if a result is uncertain.
How to verify success
In-transit goods are identifiable, balances reconcile to movements and every pending transfer has an owner.
Limits & things to check
Items added to a running tab are reserved. Borrowing a library copy does not reduce merchandise stock.
