Stock Takes
Stock takes use a point-in-time approach so you can count physical stock while sales continue to arrive.
How it works
Start the stock take.
TrueSKU records a frozen timestamp and the items being counted.
Pick older outstanding orders first.
Before counting, remove items needed for orders that existed before the frozen time.
Count the physical stock.
Enter the counted figures against the stock take.
Review differences.
Large deviations can be checked before being accepted.
Reconcile accepted lines.
TrueSKU applies accepted differences through stock movements.
Why this matters
A simple “set stock to counted figure” approach breaks when sales are still happening. The frozen timestamp lets TrueSKU work out what the stock should have been at the count moment and then reapply later movements.
