Introduction to Stock Control

The Stock module provides a wide variety of functionality including:

Graphs and bar charts are available for pictorial reporting of sales and purchase analysis in addition to hard-copy printouts and Excel reports. A full bar-coding system is included in the Stock module. The Stock module can interface with electronic ordering from both Provet and SVS.

In normal practice new stock products are added to the Stock module when inserting suppliers' invoices. Items can also be entered directly into the Stock module.

It is possible to select a specific Purchase Group for each stock item. If no purchase group is selected, the default Cost of Sales general ledger account will be allocated.

An essential part of the Stock module is the Reminder System. Reminders can be generated automatically by invoicing a stock product which has a reminder attached or they can be entered manually. These reminders form part of your on-going customer relations and marketing system.

In addition to acting as an entry point for stock purchases, the Suppliers module is used to maintain comprehensive accounting information on your Suppliers (creditors). All information entered in this area of the program is integrated to the appropriate areas in the General Ledger and Stock system.
