You can set minimum and maximum stock levels, and a target amount\u2014which could vary across different warehouses depending on local turnover rates.<\/h3>\n<h3>When you run a Materials Requirement Planning (MRP) report in SAP Business One you can base it on the stock levels you need to buy or make to\u2014that gives you a lot of flexibility. The MRP functionality can also provide you with an economic order quantity, and clarity on when stock will arrive, even taking into account public holidays and other breaks.<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;2.

The solution includes a dashboard for stock takes and can alert you when they are due based on the criteria you input (e.g., which product lines, warehouses, bin locations).<\/h3>\n<h3>Right from the alert that pops-up in the interface you can create a stock count sheet and freeze the movement of stock for the duration of the count. It\u2019s easier to coordinate teams of people performing regular stock counts, import the details, refine and re-count, and extract the amalgamated results so that you can reconcile issues before posting the differences.<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;4.
