Record waste or move stock
Adjust stock quantity for a product with a reason, or move stock between rooms.
Overview
Stock adjustments on the iPad handle two cases: discarding units (Add Waste) and shifting units between rooms (Move Stock). Both ask for a quantity and an optional reason, and update stock immediately on the Dashboard and on every other paired device.
When to use it
- Discovered a damaged or expired unit that needs to come off the floor
- Moving stock from back-of-house storage to a sales room
- Correcting a miscount spotted during a shift before it hits a sale
How to use it

- Open Stock from the drawer menu.
- Search or filter to find the product.
- Tap the product row — the stock modal opens with two actions.
- Pick Add Waste (remove units) or Move Stock (shift units to another room).
- For Move Stock, select the target room from the dropdown.
- Enter the quantity on the keypad and tap Next.
- Enter an optional reason (recommended — it shows up in the audit log).
- Tap Add Waste or Move Stock to save — stock updates immediately.
Tips & gotchas
- Waste is irreversible on the iPad — if you made a mistake, have an admin correct it from the Dashboard inventory logs.
- Moving to a room where the product has zero stock creates a new room-product record automatically.
- Batch-adjusting many items at once is faster in the Dashboard stock tab.
- The reason field is optional but strongly recommended — it's the only context future you (or the owner) will have when reviewing logs later.
