Stock Take

A stock count that just confirms a number on a page doesn't tell you much. FlexManager's Stock Take module guides a physical count of stock in a store, compares it against recorded levels, and updates the system with the counted figures the moment the count is done.

What Can Stock Take do for You

Counts on a Rhythm, Not by Chance

Stock Take lets you schedule recurring stock takes automatically, so counts happen on a regular rhythm rather than only when someone remembers to organise one. it allows you to count stock group by group in a guided flow, and a summary of any stock take can be printed once it’s done, giving you a clear, shareable record of what was actually counted.

How Stock Take Supports Your Industry

From Signed-Off Count to Full History

The module supports teams carrying out a stock take on a phone or the web, whichever suits where they’re actually working, and capturing a signature the moment a count is finished. Everyone relevant gets notified when a stock take is complete, and past stock takes can be searched, exported, or viewed directly from a project profile.

Count and Reconcile in One Flow

Count physical stock and reconcile it against records, so a stock take actually tells you where the numbers agree and where they don't, rather than just confirming a total.

See the Real Cost of a Discrepancy

See the variance between counted and recorded levels, along with the cost impact of every discrepancy, so a shortfall isn't just a number, it's a figure you can act on.

Update Live Levels Instantly

Update live stock levels from your count in one step, so the system reflects reality straight away instead of running on outdated figures until someone corrects them manually.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to stock levels once a count is finished?

Live stock levels update from your count in one step, so the system reflects what was actually counted straight away rather than needing a separate correction to bring the records back in line.

How do you know if a discrepancy actually matters?

Every discrepancy shows its cost impact alongside the variance between counted and recorded levels, so you can judge a shortfall by what it’s actually worth, not just by how big the number looks on its own.

Can stock takes happen automatically on a schedule?

Yes. Stock takes can be scheduled to recur automatically, so counts happen on a regular rhythm rather than depending on someone remembering to organise the next one.
