Each branch counts its own stock. When the size is out, a sales assistant can only guess or ring around, and most simply say it is unavailable.
Free ConsultationIt is almost never a matter of effort. These are the patterns we keep running into.
An item is recorded once and its quantity held per location. A sales assistant can see availability at every branch from the till.
A transfer has a document with sent and received states, so goods in transit still count and any gap can be traced.
Faulty items and returns move to a dedicated location with a reason, so they stop counting as sellable and their value can be reassessed.
Base prices are set centrally while a given branch can hold its own price or promotion without breaking stock records.

What this screen shows
Case study
Situation
Six branches with separate stock records. Assistants phoned other branches to check sizes, and rejects were stored mixed in, so their value kept counting as inventory.
What we built
The item list was unified with per location quantities, inter branch transfers became documents with states, and a dedicated reject location was created with reasons.
Result
Pick the one closest to your situation. We tighten the scope in the first conversation.
One stock figure for the whole company, visible from any branch.
Who it is for
Retailers with several branches still counting stock separately.
What you get
Each branch runs its own rules without breaking the central stock figure.
Who it is for
Retail chains whose prices, promotions, and cashier shifts differ per branch.
What you get
The till keeps serving sales offline and syncs afterwards. What genuinely needs a connection is seeing other branches' availability, because that number lives elsewhere.
The count is not the problem as long as the data can be mapped. Items with size and colour variants are recorded as one product with variants rather than thousands of separate products, so till search stays fast.
Yes, and that is the main reason to unify stock. The online store reads the same figure as the till, so an item just sold in store stops showing as available on the site.
They still happen, but become a reconciliation rather than a count from zero. Differences are recorded with reasons on their own document, so loss patterns become visible across periods.
