Product Details

Ageing Analysis
Stock is segmented into ageing buckets:
- 0–30 Days
- 30–60 Days
- 60–90 Days
- >90 Days
Each bucket shows:
- Opening Stock – Inventory at the start of the period
- Inward Stock – Quantity added
- Outward Stock – Quantity issued or sold
- Closing Stock – Inventory remaining
This helps identify fast-moving, slow-moving, and obsolete inventory, optimize replenishment, and improve warehouse performance.
How to Track Inventory

- Select the As On Date
- Choose the relevant Branch
- Apply optional filters: Product Name, Brand, or Category
- Review stock levels across ageing buckets
The system automatically calculates stock movement and ageing, providing real-time insights into inventory flow.
Understanding Stock Values
- Positive Values: Available stock
- Negative Values: Stock adjustments or pending corrections
