The goal of an inventory is to maintain an accurate record of a business' stock-level, location and age.
Stock-taking can be a laborious and often complex task, especially in fast-moving warehouses.
Manual inventories usually involve a stack of paperwork or time-consuming data entry to track stock-levels and location.
While manual inventories might seem like a more cost-effective solution in the first instance, they are time-consuming, arduous and prone to human error.
Electronic alternatives involving barcode scanners or RFID readers can provide a convenient solution, however the hardware can be prone to technical issues and can become out-dated, unsupported or even obsolete over time.
