Stock taking

The Stock taking screen (StockTakingPage) lets you systematically recount stock levels by scanning IPN codes and entering the current quantities.

Access: Search screen → ⋮ menu → Stock taking.

Purpose

  • Quickly count physical stock without opening each part individually.
  • Detect discrepancies between the database and the actual stock.
  • Save all corrections in bulk at the end of the session.

Stock-taking flow

1. Scan or type an IPN

The IPN field at the top of the screen plus a camera button. After scanning/typing: - The app searches for the part by that IPN. - If found – it adds the item to the session list. - If not found – an error message is shown.

2. Enter the current quantity

For each item on the list: 

Resistor 10k  (IPN: 1234567)
Location: Drawer A3
Database: 12 pcs   Counted: [___]   [✓]

  • The Counted field – type the actual quantity.
  • ✓ confirms the value and marks the item as checked.

3. Discrepancies

Items where counted ≠ database are marked with a ⚠ icon and color highlighting.

4. Saving

The Save all corrections button sends PATCH /api/part_lots/{id} for every counted item: the counted amount plus last_stocktake_at, so lots whose count matched are also marked as checked in Part-DB. No comment is written. After a fully successful save the list is cleared.

Session state

The stock-taking session is held only in memory (it is not persisted). Closing the screen discards any unsaved changes.

Warning

Always save your corrections before leaving the screen.
