Inventory Management, or stock control, is the process by which an organization keeps track of its stuff. For a small business, keeping track of items with Excel or Quickbooks or even pencil and paper may be sufficient, but as the business expands so does the complexity of the task. Eventually, a company adopts an inventory management system to bring organization and consistency to its records.
