Stop Finding Out You Are Out of Stock From a Customer

Counts that match the shelf, alerts before a fast mover runs dry, and one number for stock across every branch you run.

Most shops do not lose money on stock in one dramatic event. They lose it in small, boring, repeated ways: a fast mover that runs out on a Friday, a slow mover that ties up cash on a shelf for eight months, and a count in a book that stopped matching the shelf some time last year and nobody knows when.

The count matches the shelf, because selling updates it

Stock moves when a sale is rung up, not when someone remembers to write it down. That one change removes the whole category of problem where the sales record and the stock record are two documents that have to be reconciled by hand and quietly never are.

Alerts before you run out, not after

Set a level per product and the system flags it when it drops below. The point is not the alert, it is the timing: knowing on Tuesday that you will be out by Friday is a purchase order, and knowing on Friday is a customer walking to the shop down the road.

It will not place the order for you and it does not guess your supplier's lead time. It tells you what is running down. The decision stays yours.

Stock takes on a phone, against the list

Counting is done on a phone, walking the shelves, against the list the system holds. The variance comes out at the end: what you should have, what you actually have, and the gap. The gap is the number worth looking at, and most owners have never had it in a form they could look at.

More than one shop, one number

Each branch has its own stock. You can transfer between them, and the transfer is a record rather than a phone call. The owner sees the total across every location without asking two managers and adding it up.

This is what the Multi-Branch plan is for, and it is the point at which most shops stop being able to run on a book at all.

Serial and pack codes for the things that need them

Phones, appliances and anything under warranty can be tracked as individual units rather than as a quantity. When a customer comes back in eight months holding a receipt, the specific unit is findable.

Where the shrinkage shows up

Stock that leaves without a sale behind it is the hardest thing to see in a paper system, because the paper only records what someone chose to write down. When every movement has a staff member and a timestamp against it, the pattern becomes visible without anyone having to accuse anybody of anything.

That side of it is on the homepage under loss prevention, and it pairs with the POS, since a sale is where most stock movement starts.

Questions people ask about stock

How do I get my existing stock into it?

We do it as part of setup. You hand over whatever you already have, a spreadsheet, an exercise book, or the contents of the shelves, and we load it and check the counts with you before you start selling on it.

Can I do a stock take on a phone?

Yes. Counting is done on a phone against the list, so the person counting does not have to walk back to a computer to enter anything.

Does it handle more than one branch?

Yes, on the Multi-Branch plan. Each location has its own stock, you can transfer between them, and the owner sees one number across all of them.

Will it tell me what to reorder?

It flags products that have fallen below the level you set for them. It does not place the order for you, and it does not guess your supplier lead times.

What about items with serial numbers?

Individual items can be tracked by serial or pack code, which is what you want for phones, appliances and anything else where the specific unit matters for a warranty or a return.
