Two people, two versions
The stock sheet is updated by one person; the ledger by another. Neither is quite sure the other has caught up.

02The problem
Your stock and your books
live in two places.
One person keeps the stock sheet. Another keeps the ledger. At month-end, the two are forced to agree — usually by hand.
Month-end is a reconciliation
Closing stock and the books are forced to agree by hand — usually after the numbers have already been questioned.
Margin stays a mystery
Nobody can say which item, customer or trip actually made money, because the cost lives in a different file.
03The mechanic
One posting updates
stock and books.
A sale or purchase voucher posts the stock movement and the double-entry at the same time. There is no second journal to write, and no stock adjustment to remember.
Step 01Stock +100
Buy 100 bags
Stock rises to 100. The supplier ledger is credited in the same voucher.
Step 02Stock −20
Sell 20 bags
Stock falls to 80. Cost of goods sold and the customer receivable are posted together.
Step 03Difference Rs 0
Read the book
Item ledger, trial balance and profit & loss agree — with no stock journal to chase.
04Inside CountsBook
Seven parts
of one book.
Purchasing, sales, stock, ledger and trips share the same records. Nothing is bolted on after the fact.
05Inventory
See stock by warehouse,
not just a total.
A single stock number hides the problem. You need to know what is in the shop, what is in the godown, and what moved between them — before a customer asks.
- Per-warehouse quantity and value
- Transfers between locations without losing count
- FIFO valuation and an item ledger for every movement
- Batch and expiry tracking on items that need it
