Inaccurate or Inadequate Inventory are two somewhat different challenges. Inaccurate inventory leads to confusion about what is currently in-stock, while inadequate inventory is a failure to manage stocks into the warehouse space to allow for order fulfillment. Inaccurate inventory is usually a problem of data entry, where inventory records haven’t been updated or entered correctly. Inadequate inventory is a management failure which can be the outcome of poor data but can also be part of cashflow problems or failure to prioritize operations properly. Either can lead to poor pick and pack times, bad customer service, and reputation damage. By having a system in place to make sure your inventory and in-stock materials are up-to-date your business will be able to avoid the loss of customers.
