How do I view the stock movement history for a variant?

Why Review Stock History?

Whenever you need to investigate why stock is lower than expected, check when a supplier shipment was entered, or verify whether an order deducted correctly, you can open the variant's Stock History.

How to Open the Stock History

  1. Open Inventory (on mobile: Menu (☰) at the bottom → Inventory) and click the product.
  2. On the variant card, click the History button (clock/ledger icon).
  3. The Stock History window opens with the complete, chronological audit trail for this variant.

Reading a History Entry

Each movement entry in the history displays clear, color-coded details:

  • Movement Type & Icon:
    • Stock In (Green arrow down): New purchase or production added.
    • Sale Out (Red arrow up): Auto-deducted when an order was placed.
    • Order Cancelled / Return (Purple undo): Units returned to stock.
    • Adjustment (Amber sliders): Manual correction or damage write-off.
  • Quantity Change: Highlighted in bold green (e.g. +20) or red (e.g. -2).
  • Stock Progression Badge: Shows the exact before-and-after count (e.g. Stock 14 → 12).
  • Order Reference Link: If the change was triggered by a sale or cancellation, the customer's Order #Receipt is shown for quick reference.
  • Cost & Batch Value: Displays the cost per unit and total batch value associated with that movement.
  • Timestamp: Date and exact time when the transaction took place.
💡 Audit Tip: The history window scrolls smoothly for variants with extensive transaction histories, letting you trace stock movements back to day one.
