Warehouse visibility
Know where stock is—and why it moved.
Track inventory across warehouses and bins while keeping quantities, movement history and valuation aligned. Use consistent transactions instead of direct stock edits that bypass controls.
- ✓Stock status visibility. Distinguish available, reserved, in-transit, quarantined, damaged and other configured stock states.
- ✓Traceability. Support SKU, unit of measure, barcode, lot, serial and expiry details where relevant.
- ✓Controlled adjustments. Use reason-coded stock adjustments, count differences and approvals rather than silent quantity changes.

Common questions
Warehouse management FAQs
The requirements call for multi-company, branch, warehouse and bin support. Each movement should identify its source and destination so quantities remain traceable by location.
The intended inventory model distinguishes on-hand, reserved and available-to-promise quantities, with reservation expiry. Reservation and stock issue should be handled as controlled, consistent transactions.
A transfer should record stock as in transit after dispatch from the source and only complete the destination receipt when the receiving warehouse confirms it.
Returned or damaged items should be inspected before restocking. The outcome can be restock, quarantine or scrap, with the inventory and financial effects recorded through the appropriate workflow.
In the intended integrated workflow, stock receipts, issues and valuation affect relevant inventory accounting. Actual postings depend on the deployed modules, approved costing policy and configuration, and should be reconciled against the general ledger.
