Run a store stock take

Count, check and post the result, so the book stock matches the shelves.

1. Book the counting team or outside counters
2. Clear the stockroom and process all deliveries. Most people forget this: Deliveries left unbooked show as a false loss
3. Process all returns and damaged items
4. Count the shop floor and stockroom by area
5. Recount any area with large differences
6. Post the count and check the loss figure
7. Approve the final result (Store manager signs off)
8. Write up causes and actions for the biggest losses
