Move stock with documents
Receipts, issues, transfers and requisitions are documents that someone approves before they post. Transfers wait until the receiving branch confirms what arrived.
- Receive, issue, transfer, requisition
- Approval before anything posts
- The receiving branch signs off transfers

Can each branch see only its own stock?
Yes. You decide which locations each person can see and work with, while head office sees them all.
How do transfers between branches work?
The sending branch creates a transfer, and stock shows as in transit until the receiving branch confirms what actually arrived.
How is stock valued?
At weighted average cost. Each receipt updates the average, and stock value is posted to the general ledger.
Does selling at the till reduce stock?
Yes. Sales at the till reduce stock at that branch immediately, so what you see is always current.
Can we count just one shelf?
Yes. Counts can cover a whole store or a selection of items, with variances shown before you post.
