Check stock and upcoming demand ​

When to use it ​

Use this guide when you need to check stock and upcoming demand.

Before you start ​

  • Open Real Time Inventory from the module menu. Your account must have access to this screen and permission for the action you want to complete.

What this changes ​

You can review current stock and the displayed short-term supply and demand picture.

Viewing, filtering or exporting information does not correct the underlying records. A downloaded file is a copy of the result at that time.

Steps ​

  1. Open Inventory → Real Time Inventory.
  2. Search by SKU (the code for a particular product, grade, and unit) and use category or status filters.
  3. Check current stock alongside Outgoing Stock, Incoming Stock, and Available Stock for today, tomorrow, and the day after.
  4. Use the Cycle Counts view where offered to compare recorded counts. Use Export CSV for the selected information.

Restrictions ​

RTI (real-time inventory, or current recorded stock) means real-time inventory. A forecast is not proof that incoming produce has arrived. Check receiving records and physical stock when a discrepancy needs investigation.
