What is inventory counting?

Inventory counting is the periodic verification of goods availability in the warehouse. Usually, it's a physical recount and comparison with system data. Inventories are regularly conducted to identify shortages or surpluses. Based on the results, reports are drawn up and adjustments are made to the records: missing goods are written off or found surpluses are accounted for.

The Inventory module in Odoo maximizes the automation of the inventory process. You can create inventory plans, conduct spot checks using barcode scanners, and the system itself will generate all necessary documents for write-off or receipt. This makes the process fast, accurate, and documented. To set up an effective inventory process in your warehouse, contact the experienced Odoo integrator — OS-MENA.
