Stock Balancer

- Configuring "Stock Balancer" SettingsWhen you have more than one warehouse, an item runs out in one branch while it piles up in another, and moving stock by guesswork isn't enough. Every company has its own way: how many days stock should last, which branch needs it first, and which warehouse is never drawn from.
- Setting Minimum and Maximum Item Quantities in "Stock Balancer"Sales don't tell the whole story: a new item that hasn't sold yet should be in the branch from day one, and a bulky item won't fit in a small warehouse however well it sells.
- Running a "Stock Balancer" Cycle and Approving the PlanKnowing which branch is short of an item and which has too much of it means going through sales and stock for every item in every warehouse, then working out what to move and from where. That takes a long time, and transfers fall behind.
- Preparing Transfers and Adding Warehouse Responsibles in "Stock Balancer"Approving the plan doesn't mean the stock has arrived: each warehouse still has to prepare its transfers with the right quantities, and any counting mistake later shows as a stock gap between the two branches.
