Stock control

[Sunnyone]

I run a small electrical and heating contractors business. I'm would like to setup a stock control system where staff fill out a app on their phones after each job and this then updates the stock levels. Ideally I could track van and warehouse stock as well as certain tools.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

we use Brightpearl which would do what you're after but would be a very big hammer for a very small nut and you'd need some sort of integration to do the updates by an app.

I can't think of any app based stock control systems but I would say you're probably looking at putting a lot of money into having somebody develop something for you if you either can't find a suitable system or you do find a suitable system but need somebody to build an integration for it.

There is a system called 'Planet FM' that is fairly cheap and allows you to track Jobs and Stock and works on smart phones.

Would do the Job.

Absolutely fantastic, and I have had years of experience with expensive and overrated systems.

Plus it will also connect to all common web shop systems if needed, and you can try free for a month.
