What low stock means on the Business page

Learn why Bizwazi highlights low-stock items.

Low stock means an inventory item has fallen below the level where you may need to restock. Bizwazi highlights low stock so you can take action before the item runs out.

What to check

  • Check the Low stock number in the Business overview.
  • Open Inventory to see which items are low.
  • Review whether the item is fast-moving or slow-moving.
  • Check supplier availability and cost before restocking.
  • Create or record supplier bills where stock purchases need to be tracked.

Useful tips

  • Low stock can mean lost sales if customers ask for an item you no longer have.
  • Too much stock can also hurt cash flow because money is sitting on shelves.
  • Use stock records together with sales records to understand which items sell fastest.
