Stock Position

Managing a company's inventory is a difficult task to do when relying on pen and paper only. However, in the era when you get an app for everything, there are also software tools that can give you a helping hand when it comes to keeping track of stocks of materials. One of the cost-free ones is Stock Position.

With a well-structured interface, Stock Position enables you to keep information organized and create a clear layout of all the data. You can start by creating a new inventory base from scratch but note that an option to import CSV data is also available.

Stock Position displays a list of all the items in the inventory, along with their barcode and the quantity that is available in storage. You can analyze all the input and output operations for each category, check the current balance and the total cost.

Stock Position enables you to set a thresholds that will generate alerts when the item amounts drop too low. Moreover, the automatically generated pie charts provide visual support to help you quickly identify potential replenishment needs.

Input and output information is also available in table view and in graph view. Stock Position can store images of the product or item, their barcode, internal reference numbers, notes, categories, and URLs that are related to that particular inventory object.

The purpose of this application is to provide a non-expensive inventory manager and stock tracker for small companies, allowing managers to find the balance between storage costs and replenishment needs. Used wisely and at its full potential, it can be of help in efficiently managing stocks and minimizing costs.

Nevertheless, there are a few suggestions we have to add even more to its value. First, since it can handle company data, it would be wisely to have a backup option within the application, as well as support for more exporting formats (for instance, to databases). Second, while adding new items in the inventory is not difficult, it would be even better to have an input form that could then update all the fields, wherever necessary.
