Stock management: change the stock to + or - (reception - or +, stock movement......)

The inventory management method in Fastmag is FIFO (First IN, First OUT). This method values withdrawals from stock according to the values of the purchase prices of the products received on different dates.

Stock entries are made via the receipt of goods in the software. A receipt is by default, when it is created, never entered into stock automatically. This is called a pending reception.

To validate it and integrate it into stock, it will be necessary to acknowledge receipt (AR) of it.

One or more receipts can also be linked to purchase orders (management of balances).

There can therefore be several notions of stock in Fastmag shop:

• The actual stock which is all the goods whose receipts are acknowledged (AR=1)
• The theoretical stock is the set of goods that are not acknowledged receipt. Either acknowledged stock, pending stock and supplier orders.

Once the stock is validated and integrated (stock received), various operations will modify it. They are called stock movement:

• The sale
• The transfer of goods, allows to take one or more products out of a stock of a store or a depot to another (Incoming transfer, Outgoing transfer).
• Shop stock movements for pre-established reasons (Theft, Donation, defective ...)

Merchandise transfer automatically creates a receipt of pending merchandise in the destination store.

Selling and patterned movements debit and devalue the stock.

All these movements therefore generate a remaining stock.

It is possible in fastmag to allow sales with negative stocks in stores. If this possibility is advantageous to sell quickly, it complicates the management of the stock and the valuation of the stock. The purchase price is not that of a reception, it will be that of the product sheet.

1 - How to create and make a stock movement (simply out of stock) they must be created via management, system settings then:

You just need to put a motion name, check "active" and save, you can create them by stores and or copy / paste if all stores have the same types of movements:

Then in sales, scan the products concerned, click on "other actions" and select "make a stock movement", choose your reason and validate:

2- How to get out of stock with a receipt of goods:

There are two ways to do this:

*  Beep your items for sale, then create a shopping cart, named the "stock regul of xx-xx-xxxx" 

Then go to management, receipt of goods, new reception, in the origin put the same name as that given to the basket (better traceability), then click on "basket"

Then choose the basket concerned and check "with inversions of quantities" and thus recall the + will turn into -

You can also do this process directly in receipt of goods without going through a basket by creating a new reception, you just have to put - in front of the size and color concerned, then save and validate the BL by acknowledging receipt

3 - To add stock in +

Follow the same processes as above, either by basket (without checking this time the notion "with inversion of quantities") or in receipt of goods directly without putting the - just the quantity (no need to put +6)
