Questions
Common questions.
Why is my stock lower than I expected?
Check Allocated (reserved for orders not yet picked), In Quarantine (damaged items) and OnOrder (not booked in yet). Then look at the Stock Flow to see each change and what caused it.
When does my delivery show in stock?
Once we’ve counted it and booked it in against your ASN. Until then it shows as OnOrder. It appears in the Stock Flow as IN with your PO reference.
Can I see what my stock was on a certain date?
Yes. Go to Reports → Overview and open Historic Inventory Levels, then choose the date.
Can I see batch numbers or expiry dates?
Yes, if your products use them. Turn on Include Extra Info in the Stock Flow.
