Record a delivery, a breakage or a shelf count, or move stock to a linked shop.

Who is this guide for?Anyone with a manager code at the terminal. Owners and Admins in the back office.

Before you begin

  • Counting is turned on for the item.

How stock changes

Stock goes down when a sale is completed, not when an item is added to the cart. Everything else is an adjustment, and every adjustment is saved with a reason.

Adjust stock

  1. Go to Store setup > Stock.
  2. Click Adjust on the item's row.
  3. Under What happened, choose A delivery came in, I counted the shelf or Thrown away or broken.
  4. Type How many. For a recount, type How many are there and Surge works out the difference.
  5. Add a Note if you like.
  6. Click Save, or Save count for a recount.

Move stock to another shop

If your shops are linked into one business, use the Transfers card on the Stock page. See Move stock between linked shops.

See what happened

In the back office, click Moves on an item's row to see each change: when, what happened, who did it, and by how much. Sales, returns, deliveries, recounts, waste and transfers all show here.

If you use vendors, A delivery came in also asks Delivered by. To receive a whole purchase order at once, use Receive delivery on the order.
