Inventory Control

Inventory Control management system

As e-commerce continues to grow, businesses need more effective solutions for managing all their warehouses and sales channels. Whatever your industry, implementing a digital inventory management system is a smart move.

When it comes to digital systems, the best solution is usually the simplest one — but simple doesn’t necessarily mean basic. Powerful yet easy-to-use inventory control programs streamline your workflows, improve visibility and increase profitability, pushing your business to the next level. 

Simple Inventory Control Software

Finale Inventory’s online, cloud-based software is easy to use and gives you better control over your inventory.  

As a retailer, wholesaler, warehouse or manufacturer, your ability to keep track of your inventory is critical to success. While many organizations still run on pen-and-paper management systems, the majority now use sophisticated software to avoid shortages and make sure orders are processed quickly.

Today, there are more inventory control management software systems available than ever before — knowing what to look for is essential to finding the right product for your business, whether you’re upgrading from an outdated program or looking to implement a software solution for the first time.

What Does Inventory Control Software Do?

Inventory control is critical to making the most use of your space while avoiding shipping delays and other problems. To do so accurately, you need two things:

  1. A record of your past sales
  2. Real-time information about what you have in stock now

With this data, it’s possible to monitor trends and anticipate when inventory levels are running low. The best inventory control management software will also give you tools to automate parts of the receiving, picking and stock transfer processes — ultimately saving you time and money while helping you maintain accuracy.

The Benefits of Implementing Simple Inventory Management Software

Organizations across all industries can benefit from implementing a simple inventory system that provides:

  • Secure data storage: Cloud-based inventory management solutions allow you to collect and store all your business data in one secure location. You can access that data from anywhere, on any internet-connected device.
  • Enhanced accessibility: Inventory management software provides a single user-friendly interface where you can access all your important information in just a few clicks. 
  • Streamlined financial management: Integrations with popular accounting software allow you to consolidate your business’s financial information, reducing human error and facilitating accurate reporting.
  • Optimized supply chains: Easily track and manage product distribution, automate procurement operations and generate purchase orders, all from one convenient place. 
  • Increased productivity: A simple inventory system lets you automate processes like data input from your integrated applications to your inventory management system. Your employees can spend less time manually entering information and more time focusing on higher-value tasks. 
  • Reduced carrying costs: When you know exactly how much an order needs and how often you need to place it, you can eliminate surplus stock and minimize storage expenses. 
  • Multi-location inventory tracking: Real-time updates in stock levels across your warehouses and retail stores allow you to make informed inventory purchasing and transfer decisions based on optimal reorder points. Many programs also automate analytics reporting, improving accuracy and saving you valuable time.

While there are many different inventory management software programs on the market, you need one that can do more than just track data. You need a system with complete visibility, an easy-to-navigate user interface and room to grow with your company. 

Why Should You Choose Finale Inventory? 

Finale Inventory is an advanced inventory control software system. Key features of our product include:

  • Centralized inventory tracking: Finale Inventory is a cloud-based platform that can store your data in a secure online server, making it accessible via any computer workstation or mobile device. Inventory is updated in real time, which will give you an of-the-moment look at your current stock.
  • Seamless integration with other enterprise software: Finale Inventory will fit into your existing workflow, integrating seamlessly with Shopify, QuickBooks, Amazon, Square, Excel and other platforms. Such functionality translates to less duplication of effort and no need to change your workflow or retrain your team.
  • User-friendly barcode scanning: Finale Inventory integrates with various laser barcode scanners to streamline inventory tracking. Simply scan the barcode when you need to add or remove inventory and our system will automatically update to reflect your changes. You can also use our mobile barcode scanning app to let your employees scan labels directly from their smartphones.
  • Fast searching and filtering: Access to information is great, but unless you can find the data you want with ease, you won’t enjoy the full benefits of an inventory control software platform. We’ve designed Finale Inventory to be fast and easy to use, so you can make data-driven decisions that respond to events as they happen.
  • Multi-location support: Finale Inventory allows to quickly keep track of inventory at each location as businesses typically will add new locations to support their operations.
  • Stock auditing capabilities: Quickly audit and understand any stock discrepancies with the new stock history reports. It can be arduous to understand who did what when many users are stock changes (such as purchase order shipments, stock transfer, stock changes, stock takes and sales orders shipments).
  • Inventory Accounting and Landed Costs: Finale’s landed costs capability tells you exactly what your inventory is worth. Additionally, the program’s inventory accounting functions and reports complete the full picture by providing a record of each financial transaction to ensure accurate reporting of figures for financial reports, taxes, or regulatory compliance.

Finale Inventory helps you identify hot sellers and anticipate when you’ll need to reorder. An optional mobile barcode scanner streamlines warehouse operations by facilitating wave picking and other batch picking models. Multi-location operations can use our product to monitor global stock levels from a single location, arrange transfers and more.

The Best Recommendation for a Warehouse Management System We’ve Ever Gotten!

” I have been using Finale for over six months now and it really has been one of the better decisions that we have made moving forward with a warehouse management system. It was recommended to us by mutual friends. 

We came from using Skubana and there were so many things that just didn’t work nor met our expectations about a WMS. We had to change a lot of our natural workflow to adapt to Skubana limitations and even then, it was a struggle. When we first considered changing our system to Finale, we were very skeptical since we had already committed so much to Skubana. 

We thought we would need to start back at square one and the entire gruesome process would start again. That wasn’t the case at all. The switch over to Finale was not even a day’s worth of work. It was so easy to set everything up that we were operating at 80% in the first 3 hours. 

One of the most notable things about Finale is that we were able to address every single problem that our previous WMS could not. Some examples were Dynamic Purchase Order Integration, Location Auditing, System Search functions (Searched the entire database for items rather than just what is categorized under a supplier), and the ability to push fake qty and live qty for the same item for different listings on the same store. 

Finale works on having the system work, while some other WMS (Skubana) work on making their systems look good. I look forward to seeing Finale grow more and more!”
