DESCRIPTION |
Stock counts are one of the main tools retailers have to ensure their perpetual inventory is accurate. Stock counts may be executed by staff, but many times a retailer will hire a third party service to perform the stock count. Retailers can perform their Ad Hoc, Unit, Problem Line or Unit and Amount stock counts using different counting methods. |
