Stock tracking lets you monitor how much of each product you have on hand. The system keeps your counts accurate by deducting stock automatically when orders are completed.
Setting Initial Stock Quantities
You set the starting stock quantity when you create a new product.
- Go to Products from the sidebar menu.
- Tap Add Product or edit an existing product.
- Find the Stock or Inventory section.
- Enter the initial quantity on hand.
- Save the product.
You can update this number at any time by editing the product.
Viewing Current Stock
You can check the current stock level for any product from its detail screen.
- Go to Products from the sidebar menu.
- Tap on the product you want to check.
- View the Stock field to see the current quantity.
Products with low stock are highlighted so you can spot them quickly.
How Automatic Deduction Works
The system adjusts stock counts for you. Here is how it works:
- A customer places an order that includes the product.
- The order is marked as completed.
- The system subtracts the ordered quantity from the product's stock.
You do not need to update stock manually after each sale.
Setting Low-Stock Thresholds
You can define a minimum stock level for each product. When stock reaches that number, the product appears in your low-stock alerts.
- Edit the product.
- Set the Low Stock Threshold value.
- Save your changes.
Tips for Accurate Stock Tracking
- Set quantities carefully when first adding products.
- Do regular stock counts to verify system numbers match reality.
- Adjust stock manually if you receive new shipments or find discrepancies.
- Use low-stock alerts so you never run out of popular items.
