Why inventory errors happen
Inventory mistakes often occur due to:
- Manual stock updates: spreadsheets and human entry are error prone.
- Disconnected processes: procurement, sales, and inventory not synchronized.
- Missed updates on returns or damages: Stock doesn’t reflect reality.
- Complex fulfillment chains: multiple orders and shipments create room for mistakes.
