How to use Items most often corrected manually

Items most often corrected manually shows which stock items needed manual corrections during the selected period. This is useful because frequent corrections may reveal process problems.

What manual corrections can mean

• Stock was counted and found different from Bizwazi.
• Sales may have been missed or entered incorrectly.
• Stock may have been removed without being recorded at the time.
• Opening stock may have been wrong.
• Staff may be using the wrong sale type.
• Supplier deliveries may not have been entered properly.

When manual corrections are normal

• You are starting to use Bizwazi and correcting old stock numbers.
• You completed a stock take.
• You corrected a mistake after checking the shelf.
• You adjusted damaged or expired stock.

When manual corrections are a warning sign

• The same item is corrected again and again.
• Corrections are large.
• Corrections happen after every busy day.
• Stock keeps reducing without clear sales or damage records.

How to investigate

• Open the inventory item.
• Review the stock movement history.
• Check sale records for the same dates.
• Check invoice payments added to Sales.
• Check bill purchase entries.
• Check whether staff understand when to use manual sale versus stock-linked sale.
