Physical
On hand and usable
Separate what is present from what is currently usable.
Inventory availability software
See what can be promised—and why that answer is different from on hand.
KnownStock keeps physical stock, condition, demand and expected supply distinct at the same confirmed point.

A real product workflow
See the facts behind the stock figure.
This example uses fields and states that exist in KnownStock. It is a clear HTML product view, not a fabricated customer screenshot.
The operational problem
A stock figure only helps when the team knows what to do next.
A positive on-hand number can still hide quarantine, existing customer commitments or an allocation deficit. Teams need the quantity for the decision they are making, not one total reused for every question.
What improves
Turn the problem into a dependable daily routine.
KnownStock keeps each quantity and document effect distinct, so a clear screen never hides an important difference.
Demand
Committed and allocated
See promises and the physical quantity reserved for a particular document.
Planning
Incoming and projected
Combine confirmed supply plans with demand without calling it physical stock.
How the work flows
Prepare, review and confirm with a clear result.
Drafts give the team room to prepare and correct the work. When someone confirms it, KnownStock checks the operation and records the appropriate stock or planning change.
- Read physical state by warehouse
- Subtract commitment for available-to-promise
- Subtract allocation for free-to-pick
- Add expected supply only to the projected position
A practical adoption path
Start without a lengthy implementation.
Begin with one warehouse, one item and one real opening quantity. Add locations, pack sizes, documents and policies only when they solve a current need. Previewed CSV imports reduce setup risk, while authorised exports keep your records portable.
A focused product boundary
Keep neighbouring responsibilities in the right systems.
KnownStock handles day-to-day inventory operations. Accounting, statutory documents, payments and specialised logistics remain with the systems and people responsible for them.
- No hidden or editable availability total
- Allocated is not subtracted twice from committed
- A sales order may make availability negative without making physical stock negative
Ready for a verifiable first movement
Start with one item, one warehouse and one quantity you can explain.
Create a workspace without a card, add your first item and warehouse, then follow the practical manual at your own pace.
