Objective

As a business owner, your inventory is in a constant state of flux. It’s virtually guaranteed that for the most part your latest inventory records don’t match your actual physical inventory with 100 percent accuracy. That is why you have to periodically take stock, reconcile and value your inventory records against physical stock. Doing so helps you identify the source of discrepancies improve your procedures and prevent loss due to theft. This workshop is designed to teach the best practices and process of matching your stock records with what you physically have in your store. Upon completion of this workshop, participants will be able to:

  • Provide accurate stock records of which products are performing well and which are not
  • Monitor real time stock levels-identify shrinkages, damage and theft
  • Review pricing strategies, keep up to date with your current purchase prices
