Inventory history

Inventory history that explains every quantity

A current quantity tells you what is available. A movement history explains how it got there. Pallet keeps stock adjustments attached to the item so a small team can investigate changes without maintaining a separate log.

Record stock in and stock out
Keep sale or restock notes
Review item-level and workspace activity
A simple workflow

From physical stock to a clear record.

01

Open the item

Start from the record whose physical quantity is changing.

02

Choose in or out

Enter the quantity, relevant price, and a short reason.

03

Keep the trail

The item history and activity view preserve the change for later review.

The reason matters as much as the number

“Minus one” could mean sold, damaged, used in a repair, donated, or corrected after a count. A short note turns a mysterious adjustment into useful business context. When recording a sale, the selling price can also preserve the commercial value of that movement.

Useful for handoffs and stocktakes

History becomes especially valuable when more than one person touches stock. A teammate can see that an item was received, sold, or corrected instead of assuming the current number is wrong. During a stocktake, adjustments create a trail rather than silently overwriting the quantity.

  • Use consistent reasons such as sale, restock, damage, and count correction.
  • Add a note when an adjustment is unusual.
  • Review repeated corrections as a sign that the storage process needs attention.

Focused history, not accounting

Pallet’s history supports inventory operations and item-level context. It is not an accounting ledger, invoice system, or replacement for tax records. Use it to understand physical stock movements, then keep formal accounting in the system designed for that responsibility.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can I add a reason to a stock change?

Yes. Stock-in and stock-out actions support a note or reason.

Does history replace accounting software?

No. It explains inventory movement; it is not a financial ledger or tax system.

Can I review activity across the workspace?

Yes. Pallet includes an activity/history view in addition to each item’s movement trail.
