FAQ: Inventory control software
Inventory control is the process of managing a company’s inventory from the time it is received to the time it is disposed of, whether on the shelf, in transit or in production. The goal of inventory control is to ensure there is always enough stock on hand to meet demand without carrying too much stock that the cost of keeping it eats into profit.
Inventory control software centralizes and streamlines inventory control processes, tracking and managing inventory so a business can quickly know what stock it has. The software gives users detailed information about inventory on hand, including what, how many and where located. That data is integrated with sales, purchasing and accounting processes to streamline order fulfillment and fuel related business activities.
Inventory control software simplifies and centralizes basic inventory management processes and provides visibility into stock levels, helping companies avoid overstocking and stockouts.
