The stock reports

Last updated

Two reports: what moved, and what is on the shelf now. Both are open to any clinic member. Stock is held clinic-wide by design, so both cover the whole clinic.

Stock movement

What came in and what went out in the period, per product and per reason, with a list of individual movements behind it.

  • The per-product totals are summed in the database over the whole period, so they are right whatever the movement list below is showing.
  • In, Out and Net always add up. Out is shown as a positive number but is stored as the negative it is, so In less Out is the Net change exactly.
  • Level now is the running balance on the product today, not a figure derived from this period. Where the two disagree, the Drift tab of Stock levels says so.

The page shows up to 200 individual movements and says when it is showing only part of the result. Export CSV can include more, up to 50,000 movement rows. Use a shorter period if you need more.

Stock levels

A snapshot of today, so it has no period. Three tabs: All products, Low stock and Drift.

  • Stock valuation at cost is the level times the cost price on the product. A product with no cost price counts as nothing rather than as a guess, and the page says how many those are. The valuation covers the products read, whichever tab is showing. The page and CSV both stop at 5,000 active products, so a capped catalogue gives a partial valuation and export.
  • Low stock is at or below the reorder level set on the product, the same threshold rule used by the Stock page's low-stock count. A product without a reorder level is not marked low.
  • Drift lists products whose running level disagrees with their movement ledger. A product's running level is maintained by the database whenever a movement is written, so this list should be empty. Anything on it means a level and its movements have parted company, which makes the valuation wrong by that much. Report drift to us so we can investigate. A stock adjustment can correct the physical quantity on the shelf, but does not by itself repair an existing difference between the running level and its ledger.
  • Archived products are not held and are not valued. They keep their movement history, which is on the Stock movement report.
