Taking control of Stock:  Stock Management touches every part of your business. Sales people need to know what stock is available, Buyers need to know what is in stock, how much has been reserved for customers, what is already on Order and the usage over recent weeks / months.

Whether you have multiple stock locations, Quality certification (ISO9000+ for Lot traceability) or perishable items with expiry dates, the i-Tr@der iPic (Product Inventory Control) system puts real control in your hands.

Re-Ordering Stock:  When faced with the job or re-ordering stock there are many factors involved. In most companies there is normally an experienced 'Purchaser' who has a great gut feel about each products' usage profile, the time to get new stock in, and how much is needed to avoid the dreaded 'out of stock' situation.

i-Tr@der always seeks to take this 'on the ground' knowledge and place it into a 'process' thus reducing the exposure of reliance on gifted, hard working (often exhausted) individuals keeping the company going. When re-ordering with i-Tr@der, reports give you up to the minute status of your products and their usage profile, taking Sales Orders in the pipeline, existing Purchase Orders and the current stock holding all into account.

Where has the stock gone? :  Why is there no stock left? We've only just received some of them! Why is there stock showing on the system, but none in stock? These are all common questions.

The i-Tr@der movement transaction window helps resolve these questions with a complete list of stock in's and out's!

Full movement details:  When you need to know all the details for a stock movement right down to the Purchase Order the goods arrived in on, the Sales Order that generated the move, or the despatch note details that the stock went out on i-Tr@der provides this with a simple mouse click.

View the actual Sales Order, the Actual despatch note and even who did the transaction along with the date and time! If you are using couriers you can even get the consignment note number!

Many ways to value stock:  With the ability to have multiple logical stock locations (can be used to split stock lines into groups) and also multiple warehouses, i-Tr@der provides a powerful tool to value sections of stock independently, such as say 'sample' stock seperate from 'saleable stock'.

If your business requires you to hold stock for customers either supplied by them free issue, or you need to just discreetly hold stock for specific suppliers, not only can you manage the inventory easily but you can provide valuations at any time.
