Stocked products keep a current stock level that is updated through controlled stock movements rather than casual direct edits.
Manual stock adjustments require a reason, and some adjustment types also require a written explanation.
Each stocked product can have a minimum-stock threshold. Reorder List identifies products at or below that threshold.
Lynka does not claim that the threshold automatically purchases the item. The buyer can review the product, supplier options and incoming stock before creating a PO.
Goods in Transit shows outstanding quantities on open purchase orders. Inventory hub data can also show open and overdue purchase orders and expected dates.
That gives Purchasing a different answer from stock on hand: not “what is here?” but “what is still expected from suppliers?”
Stock movements record product, quantity change, movement type, reference, reason, source and cost basis when available.
Receiving, fulfillment and manual adjustments can therefore leave different movement evidence instead of all changing the product balance with no explanation.
Slow Moving Stock uses sales activity together with current stock to identify products with weak or no recent movement.
The underlying view can include sold quantity, sold value, last sale date, sell-through rate and days since last sale, giving Purchasing more evidence before adding more stock.
The Available Stock report measures inventory that is available after the report’s reservation logic, while Goods in Transit measures supply that has not been received yet.
Keeping those views separate avoids promising a customer stock merely because the business has an open supplier order.
Outbound stock posting can respect the workspace rule that controls whether inventory may go negative.
That matters for fulfillment and adjustments because a system should not silently create impossible stock just to let a transaction through.
Lynka has a dedicated stock-adjustment process for changes that do not come from receiving or customer fulfillment. The adjustment requires a reason code, and a free-form note is required for an uncategorized manual reason.
The adjustment becomes a stock movement with the effective date, reference and user behind it. That is much easier to investigate later than editing the product quantity directly.
When negative stock is not allowed, posting a customer fulfillment can check the requested quantity against stock on hand and stop the posting when there is a shortage.
A workspace preference can allow negative stock when the business deliberately works that way. The rule belongs to the posting behavior rather than to an informal promise that staff will remember not to oversell.
Stock control gets difficult when one number has to mean everything. On-hand quantity, available stock, incoming supply and slow-moving inventory answer different questions, so Lynka keeps them as different views.
Yes. Stocked products can have a minimum-stock threshold used by the Reorder List.
