Counting methods

Integral inventory

With an integral inventory, all items are counted at one time. With this method it is important to be sure that everything is counted. The final result is seen as complete. With the StockTrace method, therefore, the area to be counted is first divided into locations, each with a barcode. These locations can be plotted on a map or entered numerically. All locations that end up in StockTrace must be counted to complete an inventory. That is one of the completeness checks. Integral inventories have the advantage that everything is counted, including products that are physically present , but are not expected based on the administrative stock. The disadvantage is often the great effort and the lack of support. However, StockTrace also makes an integral inventory into an easy-to-manage project, both for the store during the project itself and for the head office with stores in all corners of the world.

Completeness

Completeness of what must be counted is important. This means that everything in the store must be counted, StockTrace has a number of progress indicators for this and the digital difference list is an important option.

Finishing the count

Ultimately it is all about the correctness, completeness and a easy manner to process the information that becomes available withthe count. To realize the latter, the experience of the StockTrace team helps to set up the process for accuracy and completeness. The process and the support of the system thus increase the reliability and speed of your or integral inventories. The counting can be completed in one go.
