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 fast scanner cannot compensate for ambiguous codes or an uncontrolled posting step. Teams need immediate feedback while preserving the distinction between identifying an item, updating a draft quantity and confirming inventory.

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.

Resolution

Identify item and presentation

Keep leading zeros and exact pack conversions intact.

Capture

Use the camera or scanner in context

Receiving and count flows keep the item and accumulated quantity visible.

Control

Undo a read before confirmation

A mistaken double scan can be corrected while work remains a draft.

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.

  • Maintain one unique code target
  • Scan into a receiving, count or other draft
  • Review the resolved item and quantity
  • Confirm the operation online

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 GS1 certification claim
  • No lot, expiry or serial-number traceability
  • Scanning never confirms stock by itself

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.
