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
- Open Orders
- Click Inventory Count
- Set the date and optional description
- Enter counted stock only for products you actually counted
- 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.
