Inventory Count

Inventory Count

Use Inventory Count when you compare physical stock with the stock in Tapper.

This is the recommended workflow for stock checks because it is cleaner than doing many manual stock updates one by one.


What It Does

With Inventory Count, you can:

  • Set counted stock values for multiple products in one session
  • Save all differences as one grouped Inventory Count action
  • Keep the detailed per-product changes in a dedicated detail view

Only products where you enter a counted value are processed.


How to Use It

  1. Open Orders
  2. Click Inventory Count
  3. Set the date and optional description
  4. Enter counted stock only for products you actually counted
  5. Save

Tapper compares counted stock against current stock and applies the differences automatically.


How It Appears in the Ledger

In the Order Ledger, Inventory Count appears as its own action type:

  • Type: Inventory Count
  • Amount: total summed difference across all changed products (for example -8)

You can open View to see all product-level differences for that count.


Reverting an Inventory Count

If you made a mistake, you can revert the whole inventory count.

Reverting will:

  • Restore product stock to the previous values
  • Remove the grouped inventory count action and its related logs

When to Use Manual Stock Update Instead

Manual stock update still works and is useful for quick single-product corrections.

For physical stock checks across multiple products, always prefer Inventory Count.
