Section 7.9 - View and Understand Dual Stock
With Store Mode enabled, each product now has two sets of stock quantities - one for Shop and one for Store. This section explains how to view, understand, and manage inventory across both locations.
When Store Mode is active, the product list in Stock Management shows:
| Product | Shop Stock | Store Stock | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coca Cola 500ml | 25 pcs | 100 pcs | 125 pcs |
| Rice 25kg | 5 bags | 45 bags | 50 bags |
| Sugar 1kg | 30 pcs | 0 pcs | 30 pcs |
When you click Manage on a product, the details page shows stock for each location:
pieces on display
pieces in warehouse
With Store Mode, products have additional stock tracking fields:
| Location | What It Tracks | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Shop | Up to 3 measurement units | Stock quantities on your selling floor (e.g., 5 CTN / 3 DZN / 10 PCS) |
| Store | Up to 3 measurement units | Stock quantities in your warehouse (e.g., 20 CTN / 0 DZN / 0 PCS) |
When making stock adjustments in Store Mode, you can adjust either location:
When using Stock Adjustment → Add Stock, you'll see fields for both Shop and Store. Enter quantities in the location where you're adding physical stock.
When using Stock Adjustment → Remove Stock, specify which location the items are being removed from. System tracks adjustment per location.
Understanding how stock moves helps you manage inventory effectively:
When you record a purchase, you choose the destination:
Sales always deduct from Shop stock only. The system checks Shop availability before allowing a sale. Store stock is not affected by sales directly.
Transfers move stock between locations:
Low stock alerts in Store Mode work based on Shop stock levels (since that's what's available for sale):
Problem: Shop has 0 pieces, but Store has 50.
Solution: Make a quick transfer from Store → Shop, then complete the sale.
Problem: High-value items shouldn't stay on display overnight.
Solution: Transfer excess from Shop → Store for security.
Problem: Physical count doesn't match system for Shop location.
Solution: Use Stock Adjustment for Shop specifically, note the discrepancy reason.
