Inventory controlling

What is inventory controlling?

Inventory controlling is part of materials management and offers extensive analysis functions for monitoring, evaluating and adjusting stock levels in the warehouse.

A distinction is made between three different types of stock:

• The actual stock level
• The physically available stock
• The book inventory

Inventory controlling is about streamlining the warehouse in order to maintain an overview in an increasingly crowded market. The aim is to achieve a possible improvement in stocks and throughput times.
