Stock Management keeps what you buy and use to make your products — fabric, lace, foam, thread, boxes — and where it is kept. Every entry in and out is saved, so you always see how much is left and who took what. Products › Stock is different: it counts the finished products your website sells.
Where to find it
Admin › ERP › Stock Management (স্টক ম্যানেজমেন্ট). It has five pages:
- Stock now — how much of each item is in stock, and where.
- Stock in & out — every entry: stock in, to production, waste, moves and counts.
- Stock report — opening, in, out and what is left for any dates.
- Items & places — the list of what you keep and where you keep it.
- Suppliers & bills — your suppliers, goods received and their bills (this page moved here; it works as before).
How it works
- Items: each thing you keep is an item, and each colour or design is its own item (for example "Turkey fabric — Maroon"). An item has one main unit (gaj, metre, kg, roll, than, pcs …) and can also be written in other units, such as "1 roll = 55 gaj".
- Places: where things are kept — factory, godown, office, shop.
- Entries: nothing is ever typed over. Stock comes in (Stock in, Goods received, Opening stock), goes out (To production, Used / sold, Waste / damaged, Back to supplier), moves between places, or is counted (Count). The balance is simply everything in minus everything out.
- Warnings: give an item a Warn at level; when it falls to that level it shows as Running low, with a badge on Stock now in the menu and a line in the owner's "Needs you now".
Which one should I use?
| You want to… | Use |
|---|---|
| Know how many sofa covers the website can still sell | Products › Stock |
| Know how many gaj of fabric are in the godown | Stock Management |
| See what went to the factory and what was wasted | Stock Management |
Many shops use both: Stock Management for the raw goods, Products › Stock for what the shop sells.
Good to know
- Prices and stock value are for the owner only. Staff see quantities, never what the stock is worth.
- Goods received can come straight into stock. When you note a supplier delivery, choose the place under Goods received goes to.
