Inventory management services by COSYS – Optimal support for your annual stocktake and warehouse processes
COSYS’ Stocktaking Software lies at the core of their inventory management services. Designed to streamline stock counts, it offers real‑time barcode scanning and intuitive handling, enabling businesses to generate precise reports within a few simple steps—whether for small shops or large-scale inventories.
This solution consists of:
- Stocktaking App: A user-friendly mobile application that digitizes stocktaking, drastically reduces human error, and saves time and labor.
- COSYS WebDesk (Backend): A powerful graphical interface for central management. Users can manage captured data, admin users and rights, import and edit master data (articles, locations), export stocktake results, and perform business intelligence analysis (graphs, dashboards) to support strategic.
Key Features and Benefits
- Resource Efficiency & Accuracy: The software simplifies and accelerates inventory counts, minimizes errors, and frees staff for more strategic tasks.
- Offline Capability: Mobile usage is possible even without constant connectivity; data synchronizes when online.
- ERP Integration: The system can seamlessly export results to ERP or WMS platforms like SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage, WeClapp, and others.
- Scalability & Flexibility: Equally effective for retail, wholesale, manufacturing, or warehouses, and supports types of inventory such as annual stocktakes, cycle counts, and inventory sampling.
- Strategic Insights: Built-in analytics allow tracking of bestsellers, peak order days, staffing optimization, and more.
COSYS Inventory Management Software
Beyond stocktakes, COSYS offers a broader Inventory Management Software solution. Its purpose is to provide granular control over materials, ensuring that users always “know exactly what is in stock, can enforce timely reordering, track item usage, and quickly locate needed materials”.
Key Components and Functionality
- Mobile App Modules: Modular mobile features allow businesses to start with essential tools and scale with added modules later as needed.
- COSYS WebDesk: A unified backend for data management including master data, stock history, and stock overview. It reinforces transparency and control.
- Business Intelligence Tools: Enables evaluations like identifying top-selling items and workload peaks, crucial for optimizing inventory stocking and staff allocation.
- Device Compatibility: Works with smartphones (via barcode‑scanning camera plugin) or dedicated mobile computers—Android or Windows—offering scanning flexibility to suit different hardware preferences.
- Digitized Workflows & Traceability: Allows digital capture of stock movements with real‑time tracking and better error prevention than paper‑based systems.
This holistic inventory management software enhances visibility, accuracy, and responsiveness throughout supply chain operations.
