This process explains how to update the inventory file with the quantity and cost information produced from the stocktake. Note : There are any variances between the stock valuation from the Stock File and the General ledger. This program will not adjust those variances within the General Ledger. These variances can be found by running the report ' System Administration ' then ' Security ' then ' Audit Log Enquiries ' then ' GL Stock Balance ' and are adjusted by a General Journal after the discrepancies have been investigated. The report can be automatically run on a nightly basis by adding program  gelbstockbal.p  under ' System Administration ' then ' Day End procedures ' and setting each day to ' yes ' as required.  Before running this program you should print the stock variation reports so you can see what adjustments are required to make the system agree with the stocktake. Any products that are out of balance should be investigated.  To update the inventory file with the quantity and cost information produced from the stock take, perform the following: 1. From the  ProStix Main Menu  select  'Inventory Management'  then  'Stock Control'  then  'Stock Take'  then  'Update Inventory' . 2. Refer to the 'Apply Stock Take' collapsible link for a screenshot and an explanation of these options: 3. You are prompted with your printing/viewing options.
