Stock figures nobody trusts
The system says 40, the shelf says 37, and the client's asking why. Without traceability, every discrepancy becomes an argument.
Know exactly what's where — and prove it
As a 3PL, your product is trust: your clients hand you their stock and expect a straight answer at any moment. Pickpoint keeps a complete, permanent record of every unit — every move, every adjustment, every count — so the answer is always one search away.
Sound familiar?
Expiry and batch surprises
Expired stock ships, batches can't be traced when a recall hits, and FIFO exists only as a good intention.
Stocktakes that stop the warehouse
Counting means shutting down operations for days — so counts get skipped, and accuracy quietly erodes.
Built into the software, not bolted on
A permanent stock ledger
Pickpoint never overwrites history — every movement is a new record.
- Append-only stock ledger: every receipt, move, adjustment and allocation is recorded permanently with who, when and where
- Trace any item's complete journey through the warehouse from a single screen
- Point-in-time stock snapshots power accurate historical and storage reporting
- Adjustments require configurable reason codes, so every variance has an explanation
Batch, expiry & serial tracking
Item-level control for regulated, perishable and high-value stock.
- Per-item tracking flags for batch/lot, expiry date and serial number
- Batch validation on receipt and picking — configurable from warning to hard stop
- Fifteen stock statuses out of the box: sale, damaged, quarantine, QA pending, returns, expired and more — each with its own receive/move rules
- Expiry-FIFO allocation and replenishment keep oldest stock moving first, automatically
Stocktakes without the shutdown
Count while you operate — full takes or targeted cycle counts.
- Full stocktakes or cycle counts by item or location, worked from handheld scanners
- Automatic variance detection with second-level confirmation counts and recounts
- Stock arriving mid-count is handled — no frozen warehouse, no double-counting
- Count by location or by pallet, with missing locations added on the spot
Replenishment & multi-warehouse
Pick faces stay full and stock moves where it's needed.
- Pick-face replenishment by min/max levels, with guided mobile flows
- Configurable allocation strategies: FIFO, pick face, bulk, or aged-stock-first to drain old inventory
- Inter-warehouse transfers with full documentation and reporting
- Interactive warehouse map shows live occupancy per location; enquiry by item, location, pallet or carton from any device
What this means for your warehouse
Answers in seconds, not spreadsheets
When a client calls about a batch, a pallet or a single serial number, the full history is one search away.
Audit-ready, always
A permanent movement ledger and reason-coded adjustments mean stock audits become routine, not fire drills.
Accuracy that compounds
Cycle counting without shutdowns means small errors get caught weekly — not discovered at year-end.
Inventory Control: common questions
Does Pickpoint track batch numbers, expiry dates and serial numbers?
Yes. Batch/lot, expiry-date and serial-number tracking are enabled per item, with validation at receiving and picking that can be configured from a warning up to a hard stop.
Can I run a stocktake without stopping the warehouse?
Yes. Pickpoint supports cycle counts by item or location alongside full stocktakes, with automatic variance detection, confirmation recounts, and handling for stock that arrives mid-count — so normal operations continue.
How does Pickpoint keep stock rotating by expiry or age?
Allocation and replenishment strategies include expiry-FIFO and aged-stock-first, so the oldest or soonest-to-expire stock is picked and moved to pick faces first, automatically.
Can I see who moved or adjusted stock?
Yes. The stock ledger is append-only — every receipt, move, adjustment and allocation is recorded permanently with the user, time and location, and adjustments require a reason code.
