Stock value report

The stock value report stores a daily overview of your stock, so you can easily see stock value and sales value.

How it works

After activation, the report takes a snapshot of the store's stock every night at 00:00.

The following day, you can look up the report to see both stock levels, stock value and sales value of your entire stock.

Each snapshot is saved so you can go back in time to see the stock.

You can find the stock report by going to Tools > Logistics > Stock Value Report.

What does the report contain?

The basis that is generated contains the following fields:

  • Item Number
  • Product Name
  • Purchase Price
  • Sales Price (excl. VAT)
  • Physical Stock
  • Manufacturer
  • Total Purchase Price
  • Total Sales Price

In addition, a timestamp is stored to show exactly when the basis was generated.

Summarizing value and stock

The rows are summarized in the following ways:

Purchase price * Physical stock = Stock value
Sales price * Physical stock = Sales value

Total sales value/stock value is the sum of the fields above.

Important regarding summarization

If your stock contains items with a negative physical stock, this will result in the item having a negative stock value. The negative stock value will then be deducted from the total stock value/sales value. This applies to stock value, sales value and stock level (number in stock). You can choose to exclude products in minus through the filters on the report.

Example:

ProductPurchase PricePhysical StockStock Value
Yellow sweater100-2-200,00
Blue sweater1003300,00
  Total Stock Value100,00

An item should never have less than 0 in physical stock. Even if you oversell items, the physical stock should not go lower than 0. In the event of overselling, it is the available that goes into minus.

Use and functionality

After the service is activated, you will find it under Tools > Logistics > Stock Value Report.

Note that the generation first happens at 00:00 so the result is not ready until the day after activation.

When you open the report, you must first select the date you want to see the stock for.

Then the report loads and you will see a table with the fields mentioned above.

The report is only intended for viewing values and therefore does not support multiple columns, or changing the columns that are there.

At the bottom of the table you can see a summary of the entire selection in the report.

  • Total Stock Value excl. VAT 
    The sum of all item lines' stock value
  • Total Sales Value excl. VAT 
    The sum of all item lines' sales value
  • Stock Level 
    Total number of products and variants in stock

Note!

The summarization is not part of the export. If you export the report, you must do the summarization yourself afterwards.

Sorting

Sorting is available on each column in the report.

Date selector

Choose which date you want to see the stock value. New bases are generated every night.

The date selector only supports single days and you cannot select a date period.

Filter

To make it easier to create a selection of products, there are some filters available:

  • Physical Stock 
    Only show items that have physical stock within the number you choose
  • Manufacturer 
    Only show items from the selected manufacturer. It is possible to select several manufacturers.
  • Hide Negative/Zero in Stock 
    Hides all items that have 0 or fewer in stock
  • Only Show Negative/Zero in Stock 
    Only shows items that have 0 or fewer in stock. This can be a good way to clean up your stock as physical stock should never be less than zero.

Grouping

Grouping allows you to group all items per manufacturer and thus see the value and stock level at the manufacturer level.

Search

The search field allows you to search for product name and item number.

You can also specify to search only within name or item number by first writing "MODEL:" followed by item number, or "NAME:" followed by product name.

Combine filter and search

You can of course also choose to combine filter and search to get exactly the selection you are looking for.

Export

If desired, the report can be exported to CSV.

The export takes into account filters and searches. This means that if you have chosen to filter on e.g. manufacturer, only the result shown in the report will be included in the export.

To export, click on "Export", give the file a name and click "Export →". The finished generated export is placed in "Export Archive", located in the menu on the left.

PS! If you have chosen to group by manufacturer, the export will also be grouped.
