Log books

The log books are your digital equivalent of the paper inward/outward registers, a date-wise record per warehouse that reads exactly like the book on the store keeper’s desk, but always reconciles to the underlying stock movements.

For a chosen warehouse and date range, the inward register shows, per item per day:

  • Opening balance
  • Receipts
  • Adjustments (in)
  • Transfers in
  • Rejections
  • Closing balance

The arithmetic always holds, opening + receipts + adjustments(in) + transfers(in) − consumption − transfers(out) − rejections = closing for every row, and the closing balance of one day equals the opening balance of the next for the same item and warehouse. All your warehouses are selectable.

The outward register shows, per item over your chosen date range:

  • Opening balance
  • Issued / sold
  • Transfers out
  • Rejections
  • Closing balance

Outflows always reconcile so opening − outflows = closing. Each outward line links back to its source, an issue, a sales dispatch, a transfer or a rejection, so you can trace where the stock went.

To trace an item’s history quickly, filter the movement records by:

  • Product
  • Warehouse
  • Date range

Filters combine (product and warehouse and date) and return only matching records for your organisation. A date range that ends before it starts is rejected with a clear message.
