What Quantity Tracking Covers
Manage interchangeable items by count
Use location-wise quantities when the units are interchangeable and item-level history is unnecessary.
Location balances
See the quantity held at a branch, store, department or other operating location.
Receiving context
Keep purchase, vendor and receiving records connected to stock entering the organization.
Quantity movements
Record movements so stock counts reflect transfers between operating locations.
Stock position reports
Review location-wise availability and quantities for planning and reconciliation.
The Workflow
Keep quantities current as stock moves
From receiving to location transfers, keep an operational record of where quantities are held.
Step 01
Define the asset type
Identify interchangeable items that should be managed by count rather than individual serial records.
Step 02
Receive the quantity
Record the received amount with its purchase and vendor context.
Step 03
Place stock
Keep quantities associated with the branch and operating location where they are held.
Step 04
Record transfers
Update source and destination quantities as stock moves between locations.
Step 05
Review the position
Use stock views and reports to see current quantities and location balances.
Step 06
Reconcile differences
Compare the recorded balance with a physical count and investigate discrepancies through your operational process.

Choose the Right Model
When should items be serialized?
Use a separate record for each physical unit when it needs its own custodian, maintenance or warranty history. Use quantities for interchangeable items managed by count and location.
