Products with closing stock, without opening or purchases

This results means that there are products that have a closing stock without any previous opening stock or purchases, indicating the closing stock results appeared from an unknown source.

This may be a result of:

• Missed Opening Stock Count
• Incorrect Stock Count
• Missed / Incorrect Delivery
• Missed Adjustment / Transfer

Sales without purchases or opening stock

This indicates these items are present in recipes which have been recorded as sold, despite a lack of opening stock or any purchases.

This may be a result of:

• Missed Opening Stock Count
• Missed / Incorrect Delivery
• Missed Adjustment / Transfer
• Recipe sold incorrectly
• Recipe ingredients require updating

Opening stock and purchases less than closing stock

This means that these items have amounts of opening stock and / or purchases but that the amount they add up to is smaller than the closing stock. This means stock has increased from an unknown source.

This may be a result of:

• Incorrect Stock Count (Opening or Closing)
• Missed / Incorrect Delivery
• Missed Adjustment / Transfer
