Entering Stocks in SAP Retail Store 

Use

You can use this function to enter quantities for goods that you manage in stock on a value-only basis. It is particularly important for the revaluation of existing stocks after prices have been changed, for example at the beginning or end of a promotion.

Prerequisites

You can process the count list for a date in the past if the count for this date has to be entered subsequently. The count list for a date in the future can be processed on a weekend, if, for example the count for a Monday is carried out on Saturday.
