See where your money is sitting still.

Verity turns your stock and sales records into three clear answers: what is not selling, what you hold too much of, and what to reorder next.

Every figure is built so it cannot count anything twice, and it never fills a gap with a guess. When your data cannot answer, Verity says so.

From cash on the shelf to what to buy next.

Verity answers the questions that cost you money first, then lets you report on all of it.

Where is my money tied up?

Dead stock that has not sold for a time you choose (180 days to start), and excess stock that sells too slowly, each with the cash tied up in it. Items too new to judge are kept apart.

Dead stock by categoryExample
  • Outdoor€7,940
  • Kitchen€5,210
  • Lighting€3,480
  • Textiles€1,790

In Verity: Dead stock, Excess stock vs. velocity, Clearance list.

What should I reorder, and from whom?

Items that will run out before a new delivery could arrive, at the rate they really sell, arranged by supplier so each list can become one purchase order.

Running out soonExample
  • Garden hose 30 m2 days left

    Delivery takes 10 days

    40 on order, arriving in 3 days

  • LED bulb E27, 4-pack6 days left

    Delivery takes 14 days

  • Linen throw15 days left

    Delivery takes 21 days

In Verity: Reorder alerts, Running out soon, Reorder by supplier.

What does it all add up to?

The value of stock coming in and going out each month, at cost, margin by category, and sales value by month.

The better a product sells, the more a quick report overcounts it.

Put stock and sales in one table the quick way, and each product's stock is copied onto every sale, so its value grows each time it sells. Choose how often the oak shelf sold and compare.

One product, the oak shelf, holds €400 of stock.

Counts it once

Both say €400. With one sale there is nothing to copy, which is why the mistake is easy to miss. €800 of the quick total isn't really there. It says €1,200; Verity says €400. €2,000 of the quick total isn't really there. It says €2,400; Verity says €400. €4,400 of the quick total isn't really there. It says €4,800; Verity says €400. Illustrative figures.

Four rules in every report

None of them has a setting that turns it off.

  • Sales are added up first

    A product's sales are added up before they meet its stock, so nothing is counted twice.

  • Missing stays missing

    Where a figure can't be worked out, say a product with no sales to divide by, Verity shows a dash marked “no value”, never a made-up number.

  • Reports are checked before they run

    Every report is checked before it reads your data. If something is wrong with it, it stops and says so, instead of giving a wrong answer.

  • Only figures that fit are offered

    When you build a report, Verity offers only the figures your data can really link to what you are measuring.

See Verity at work on an example shop.
