Wastage is used to record items that are damaged, expired, spoiled, or not fit for sale. This helps the store keep accurate stock by removing such items from available inventory.
When wastage is recorded, the system automatically adjusts the stock quantity, ensuring that the inventory reflects the actual usable stock in the store. This prevents incorrect billing and stock mismatches.
Properly recording wastage helps store staff maintain clean and accurate inventory, track losses, and ensure smooth daily operations.
In a multi-store setup, wastage is first created at the store level and sent to the central store. The central store then checks the items and decides whether they should be treated as wastage or added back to stock. This helps maintain better control across all stores.
We can also scan items directly from the Wastage screen to add them quickly and accurately.
Keeping wastage updated helps your store maintain healthy and reliable inventory.
