3 The Novastock stocktaking solution:

The store Manager isolates the store’s goods according to their scheduled destinations Provides the equipment (terminals, PC, labels, usable goods) and mobilises and manages the necessary staff Marks out the store with bar code Batch labels as “beacons” separating different destinations Ensures that the refurbishment/closure method be respected - The operators scan the box number, its destination, and created batches along with a list of reference numbers and quantities - Checks the quantities and part numbers that have been stocklisted on PC and in the stores Supervises the search for unknown part numbers and the handling of articles without labels Organises the data processing according to the selected options. Creates a shipping document for each box for checking and makes sure that each box is sent to the right destination after being closed Returns the stocktaking file with the agreed format: 1 general file for stocktaking and 1 file per destination, with the corresponding boxes Fills in the stocktaking report and evaluation documentation with the Store Manager
