Store stock, counts and replenishment
Connect retail stock to the next action
See more than a quantity. Keep shelf and backroom stock, delivery discrepancies, count evidence and replenishment decisions visible by store and SKU.
The App contains fictional store, stock, task, audit and corrective-action records. Sign in to inspect a view or install a copy with the sample data.
Define which quantity each team is looking at
On shelf
What the customer should be able to find now.
In the backroom
Physical store stock that has not reached the shelf.
Incoming
Expected stock that has not yet passed receiving.
Held or disputed
Quantity that should not be treated as sellable without a decision.
Keep the events that explain the balance
| Event | Record | Control |
|---|---|---|
| Receive | Delivery reference, item lines, expected and received quantities | Short, damaged or wrong items keep an exception state and evidence |
| Count | Store, zone, expected quantity, observed quantity and variance | Material variances route to review instead of overwriting the expected balance |
| Replenish | Store, SKU, on-hand context, requested quantity and needed date | Urgent requests still retain an approval decision |
| Correct | Reason, evidence, reviewer and resulting adjustment | The observed count and decision remain traceable after correction |
Turn thresholds into work your team can own
Below reorder point
Verify the quantity, then open or review replenishment. Do not assume every low-stock signal should place an order.
Receiving exception
Keep the discrepancy tied to the delivery and item lines while supplier and stock treatment are decided.
Count variance
Retain both expected and counted quantities. Assign a recount or approve an adjustment through a real decision path.
Questions about retail inventory management software
Is on-hand stock enough to run retail inventory?
No. Store teams also need to know where the quantity sits, when it was counted, what is incoming, whether a delivery or count is disputed, and what action is already underway. Keep sellable, held, committed and in-transit definitions explicit when they apply to your operation.
How should receiving discrepancies be recorded?
Keep the delivery reference, expected and received quantities, discrepancy type and evidence together. Do not overwrite the expected quantity to make the receipt balance. Route shortages, damage and wrong items to the person who decides stock and supplier follow-up.
Does this App replace a POS or ERP inventory ledger?
Not automatically. The example demonstrates store-level records, reviews and exception views. If POS, ERP or ecommerce already owns inventory balances, define the integration, identifiers, timing and reconciliation before Jodoo is treated as a stock ledger.
When is a spreadsheet still reasonable?
A workbook can work for a small catalogue managed by one owner with controlled updates. Move to connected records when several people count or receive stock, approvals matter, exceptions must be retained, or store-level history is hard to reconstruct.
