03What we built

The mechanism

The public case describes the implementation. Client financial data and findings are withheld under NDA.

Movement owned by flows

Keep stock movement in a single workflow so imports and custom code do not apply the same change twice.

Changes with context

Record the previous value, new value and responsible user. Require a reason for bulk adjustments.

Depiction · A physical stock count hub: count, bulk edit, spot check, history and a full audit log, built as one component instead of five reports.Every adjustment requires a reason before it will save. An unexplained stock correction is how a discrepancy becomes permanent, so the field is mandatory rather than encouraged.
