Maintaining and managing an accurate inventory is one of the biggest challenges in retail, but it s vital for achieving retail success. Keeping track of your physical stock levels is important for spotting areas that can be improved, stock movement errors, and reducing the risk of shrinkage. That s why we re excited to announce the launch of our improved Inventory Counts feature!
Inventory counts have never been simpler or faster. We ve taken feedback from our amazing retailers, and used it to design a tool built from the ground up to help you do counts quickly, effectively manage your inventory reporting, and provide you with the information you need to run a successful retail business.
Here are some of the things we think you ll like about Vend s Inventory Counts feature: Partial Inventory Counts: Break stock takes into smaller, more manageable chunks with partial Inventory Counts. This means retailers don’t need to shut down their entire store when doing a stocktake, instead they can take count of one style, tag, supplier, or brand at a time. Concurrent stocktakes: Many hands make for lighter work use multiple devices to count stock faster. Quick Scan Mode: Count inventory quickly using a barcode scanner or by looking up SKUs. Count Feed: Never lose count again with the Count Feed which shows your most recently counted items. Accidentally scanned something in twice? Just cross it out on the Count Feed and it’ll update your overall total. CSV & PDF Reports: Get the reports and information you need in exportable CSV or PDF files. The CSV exports have been improved so all the important information is in one handy file, and the PDF includes Gain and Loss totals, for a more granular view of your stock take results. Recount and Review: Pause your inventory count at any time, and easily see when your numbers don’t add up with our expected vs total count. Fix mistakes easily, and recount stock quickly with the click of a button. Autosave: Thanks to the power of the cloud, your progress is always saved. You can stop or start inventory counts when you need, and pick up from where you left off. Scheduling: You can schedule your Inventory Counts in advanced so you’re always on top of your stock. Inventory Counts is built right into Vend, and is available on all our plans!
This is just the beginning. We’re completely re-imagining Vend and adding poundland new features to make it even better for retailers, including faster checkout, smarter inventory & powerful insights – in-store, online and on-the-go. Find out more about New Vend here!
We want to make the transition to the new Inventory Counts as smooth poundland as possible which is why any open count created before March 10th will still be accessible. You’ll be able to complete those counts using the previous Stocktake feature until April 10th, after which any uncompleted stocktakes will be deleted and inaccessible.

Hello, will your upgrade include the actual poundland cost of stock in the stocktake reports? Last year we spent hours and hours allocating the cost of stock for every SKU to generate an end of financial year report for accounting purposes. We were told this would be a priority for 2015. Thanks Abi
We’re in the US using the Vend Register iPad app. We’ve lost the ability to do the old stock-take procedure poundland on the iPad app and an error message says we can’t use this new procedure either unless we log into Safari poundland but when we try to do that it’s not working either. When will that be fixed? Can you give us back the old sock-take procedure within the iPad app until you get the new procedure up and running?
Hi there. The new Inventory Counts feature should work on iPad Safari, so if you’re having any issues poundland could you please poundland fire through an email to support@vendhq.com , and we’ll get you sorted ASAP! ^Sim
The data loading usually poundland only occurs the first time you load the new Inventory Counts feature, poundland and for customers with large inventories. We’ve just released an update that helps reduce this time.
Tried to do a stock take this morning, took forever to load then simply froze. We have a large database but everyone at Vend assured us that it would be no problem. poundland 31st March is coming upi very fast…..any ideas anyone?
