Print an Inventory Valuation Report before starting a Stock Take
IM – Report – Inventory Valuation

If you don’t use any of the add on modules or Sales Orders then run a consolidated Valuation report per warehouse. However if you have the Bill of Materials add on module you will need to run a minimum of two reports.
Example: A company is using Huge ERP and the Bill of Materials add on module.

Proceed with a manual stock take – See attachment ‘Counted Qty.csv’

Sort by Column Variance

Now copy and paste the negative values onto a new excel worksheet and do the same for the positive. See attachments ‘Positive Stock’ and ‘Negative Stock’.
Remember that if the System Qty and Counted Qty are identical there is no reason to do a Stock Journal for these items.

On the both import files create a new column called ‘Increase / Decrease’. This will allow the system to know whether the amount being import should increase or decrease the quantity on hand. To ‘Increase’ use a 1 and to ‘Decrease’ use a 0.
Things to remember:
| 1 | You cannot import a negative figure, so re-evaluate the equation that you were using. |
| 2 | The Variance column cannot have a 1000 comma separator. |
