How to perform a location-wise stocktake in GoSure StockTake app?
A same product can be present in multiple locations inside the store, say in racks, billing counters and store room/go-down. So without any confusion you can do location-wise stock counting, using GoSure StockTake app.
NOTE: By default, GoSure will consider the latest quantity entered for the products even when the product is counted more than once.
Case 1.If your employee A counts a particular product at rack 1 and at the same time another employee B counts the same product which is scattered and present in rack 5 as well, do you want the quantities to be summed up or the latest count over-written?
Case 2. If employee A counts a product once and re-counts the same in a while by mistake, do you wish the quantities to be summed up or the latest count over-written?
Case 3. If employee A counted a particular product in rack 1 as '10' quantities, continued counting other products and finds '1' quantity of the same product again at a different rack now somewhere else in the store, would you want him to return to the product location again and count it together from the first or just enter '1' here so that it would get added up with the previously entered quantity for the product?
In all the above cases, if you want the products to be summed up, kindly follow the below steps.
-> Open 'settings'
-> Click on 'Stock taking configuration'
-> Enable 'Stock taking area master'
-> Select 'end of the day' (products, when counted more than once, in a day, will get summed up)
(or)
'stock update is done' (products, when counted more than once, no matter when, will get summed up even if you update stock after a few days)
-> Apply.
Now, click on 'Stock take location master'-> select the 'location' as one of the main locations maintained in POS.
-> Create as many locations under each location (Eg. first floor, Second floor, rack 1, shelf 1, etc)-> click on 'apply'.
Stock takers can now select the location they are counting at, by clicking on the 'main location' and 'stock take location' drop down list on top left corner of the mobile app.
NOTE:
These stock take locations created in GoSure are pertained to stock take actions in GoSure only and will not affect the main locations maintained in POS.
Also, these virtual locations can be deleted, made active/in-active anytime or can be deleted also.Related Articles
