Stock by bin

Where Inventory answers how many do we have, Stock answers where is it.

Open Inventory → Stock.

Expanding a row opens the individual bins, so a product spread across three shelves shows all three with their own counts.

Splitting a product across bins is normal — a pallet in bulk storage and a handful in a pick face, or two lots of the same item received weeks apart. Fiftify keeps them as separate rows because the picker needs to walk to a specific bin, not to an average.

Picking draws from the bin the task names.

Where lots are tracked, each lot is its own stock row with its own expiry. This matters for anything perishable or regulated: two identical SKUs may not be interchangeable if their expiry dates differ.

Inventory → Inventory Logs is the audit trail: every movement, with what changed, when, and who did it. Picks, adjustments, and receipts all land here.

It is the place to answer “this number is wrong — when did it go wrong?”. The log is append-only, so nothing you see there was edited after the fact. See inventory logs for the filters and how to read a discrepancy backwards.

Stock arrives from operations, not by typing a number into a field:

• Receiving incoming goods against a purchase order
• Put-away moving received goods into their bins
• Transfers arriving from another warehouse
• Adjustments and approved cycle counts, with a reason attached

That is why a brand-new warehouse shows zero everywhere even though the products exist — the catalog is set up, but nothing has been received into it yet.

Stock also moves between bins without any of it arriving or leaving: put-away after a receipt, and replenishment topping a pick face up from bulk.
