Understanding The Challenges In Warehouse Management
Accounting firms working with clients who have warehouses face many challenges when it comes to controlling inventory. Here are some typical pain points they encounter:

Limited Visibility
If one lacks real-time visibility into current stock levels at various locations across different districts / provinces / states / countries etc., then he/she won’t know what is happening there so that appropriate actions can be taken like restocking items before they run out;
Inaccuracy In Inventories
It can be frustrating when one has inaccurate records regarding how much products he has left with him because such errors may lead to wrong calculations being made thus affecting his financial statements negatively;
