Downloads: 10+

Use this stocktake preparation checklist to get retail stores ready for accurate inventory counts. It covers two week pre stocktake actions such as writing off damages, expired stock, supplier returns, and ensuring barcodes, staffing, and scheduling are in place. Back office checks include in transit and direct deliveries reports, validating returns and IBTs, resolving stock queries, clearing negative stock, and capturing manual invoices. Physical preparation guides shoe pairing, display write ups, bin allocation, tidy layouts, and isolating non scan items. Binning instructions keep bins small and clearly numbered. Pre scanned areas and scanner timing help speed the count and reduce errors.
