Can anyone recommend tried and tested stock control software for a small business? This is usually tied in to accounting software but stock control is an issue at the moment for us as it is done manually at the moment.
Ease of use would be important.
Thanks in advance.
 
What kind of business? Do you already have IT systems in place?
 
OP
A few questions to start with....

You need to specify followng at least.

1) Is it totally stand alone stock.
2) Are the products bought in /sold out as is or assembled.
3) Are they all in same location,and do you need bin locations.
4) Is it FIFO, LIFO or what.
5) Do you need Purchase Orders to be raised and are costings in foreign or local currency.
6)Are you issuing stock to sales or to assembly or manufacturing.
8) Are you booking in stock from PO's or just Delivery dockets.
9) Are there assemblies ofr BOQ's
10) Do you need to issue documentation by email such as orders, confirmations etc
11) Is it single or multi-user
12) Is it multi-currency
13) What reports do you need as basic.
