This option will clear your stock on hand for a range products not counted since or on the 'Stocktake date', it does not clear the stocked status. If your pharmacy is set up for FIFO, the FIFO values for these products will be lost.
- Clearing old stock values is not best practice
- Minfos recommend using Rolling Stocktake to review/clear the products not counted in the stocktake
- Please review Stocktake Overview for the recommended stocktake process for Minfos pharmacies, specifically Print Not Counted reports and Enter not counted stock via Rolling Stocktake
- Do not use this option unless you have the exact date you started your stocktake
Warning: This process cannot be reversed. If you enter the incorrect date, all SOH (including the stock that you have correctly counted) may be cleared. Proceed with caution.
