Inventory Management Software

NAViCalC helps global teams manage inventory with reliable stock visibility, controlled workflows, and integrated billing. If you are running inventory across warehouses, retail counters, rentals, or service operations, you need inventory software that stays consistent across purchasing, sales, returns, and accounting entries.

This page explains how NAViCalC supports common inventory management workflows: products and masters, stock movements, purchase orders, GRN, transfers, serialized units, rental availability, and controls such as approvals, audit logs, and period lock.

What you can manage in NAViCalC Inventory

• Products and master data: maintain items, pricing, tax-ready rules (GST/VAT-style by configuration), categories, and searchable attributes.
• Stock movements: receipts, issues, adjustments, returns, and controlled transfers.
• Warehouses and availability: track on-hand and availability across locations (where enabled).
• Serialized units: manage unit-level tracking for high-value goods and rentals (where enabled).
• Purchasing workflow: Purchase Orders, GRN, and vendor bills that connect to inventory and accounting.

Key inventory workflows

Purchase Order to GRN to Vendor Bill (2-way/3-way matching)

Many teams want procurement that is auditable. NAViCalC supports Purchase Orders, receiving (GRN), and vendor bills (AP). With matching, your team can ensure that quantities and pricing align before a vendor bill is approved. Where applicable, GRNI clearing can help teams track goods received but not invoiced.

These controls reduce leakage and make month-end close easier because inventory and payables stay connected.

Stock transfer and multi-location operations

Transfers are more than just moving quantities. NAViCalC supports controlled stock transfers with traceability. When combined with approvals and audit logs, transfers remain reviewable and consistent even when many users operate in parallel.

Serialized inventory and rental availability

For rentals and serialized goods, you need availability that accounts for bookings and shifts. NAViCalC can track serialized units and, where the rental module is enabled, manage availability by booking windows and rental shifts.

Controls that keep inventory clean

• Approvals: Approval Templates, multi-step approvals, and amount thresholds for purchasing and vendor bills.
• Audit logs and entity history: review key changes for accountability.
• Period lock: prevent back-dated changes after financial close (where configured).
• Role-based access: control what each role can see and do across modules.

Master data import and bulk onboarding

Inventory projects succeed or fail based on master data quality. NAViCalC supports Master Data Import (bulk upsert) so teams can onboard items, opening stock, vendors, and customers without repetitive manual entry and without creating duplicates.

• Bulk upsert: update existing masters safely while preserving identifiers.
• Validation-first onboarding: stage imports, review exceptions, and fix data before it impacts transactions.
• Standard identifiers: keep SKUs, barcodes, and unit measures consistent across purchase, sale, and rental flows.

Inventory connected to billing and customer operations

When inventory and billing share the same system, teams reduce mismatches between stock and invoices. NAViCalC supports workflows where stock availability informs sales and rentals, and where returns and credit notes reflect in both inventory movement and the customer ledger.

This is especially important for multi-warehouse dispatch and rentals, where serialized units and booking windows must be tracked to avoid double-allocation.

Automation: reminders, queues, and monitoring

NAViCalC includes operational automation such as scheduled report delivery and message queues. Teams can run Email Queue and WhatsApp Queue (provider-based) along with cron monitoring for reliability in scheduled processes.

Who uses NAViCalC for inventory

• Retailers and multi-branch stores
• Distributors and wholesalers
• Rental businesses managing unit availability and shifts
• Service businesses that need stock visibility alongside billing

Inventory accuracy: cycle counts and exceptions

Teams that scale inventory operations inevitably face variance: shrinkage, damages, process gaps, and timing issues. The goal is not “perfect stock forever” but a system that surfaces variance quickly and makes correction auditable.

• Cycle counts: count a small subset of items regularly instead of relying only on annual counts.
• Exception workflows: treat adjustments as controlled events with reasons and history.
• Approval thresholds: require approvals for high-value adjustments or transfers.

Inventory valuation and audit readiness

Inventory management is tightly linked to finance. NAViCalC supports connected workflows so purchasing, stock movements, and billing remain consistent. This reduces end-of-month surprises and makes audits easier because records are traceable across documents.

KPIs leaders track

• Stock variance rate (by category/location)
• Stock turn / aging and slow movers
• Fill rate and stockout frequency
• Transfer variances and in-transit aging
• Vendor delivery performance (where tracked)
