What causes inventory discrepancies?
Discrepancies can come from any number of everyday situations. Here are 6 common dispensary scenarios so you can prevent them.
Misplacing an item a customer didn't buy
Example: When a customer looks at an eighth, but the flower does not get returned to the proper spot
Double scanning items at checkout
Example: When an item is scanned twice even though two items from two different packages have been sold
420 and other busy days
Example: When lines are long on high volume days, customers take priority over keeping inventory accurate
Selling the wrong version or flavor of a product
Example: When a peach-flavored gummy is added to the cart, but the customer actually purchased watermelon
Not accounting for spoiled, expired or dropped products
Example: When a rogue nug falls from the scale to the floor, but it is not counted as waste in Flowhub
Improperly processed return
Example: When a returned cartridge is added back into inventory instead of being wasted
