Inventory control is important to the success of any business especially manufacturing and retail. It is the difference between meeting consumer demand, making the bottom-line and staying alive in business. The inventory is a listing of the products and goods that a business is holding in stock or storage. This allows the business to plan when shortages are imminent so that they can order new
. supplies and avoid losses. While most companies use computer systems to help manage their stock levels, businesses usually have regular inventory checking or stock taking whether on a quarterly, half yearly or annual basis.
