Dear Sir, Best way to do efficient stock verification without hampering your day to day activity is to use some software. It not only makes stock verification a simpler process but also gives you online status afterwards. While selecting a software you have to observe following things 1. Flexibility in operation: You should have option to halt stock verification activity at any stage and it should not affect your complete process. 2. Duplicate check: while verification if by mistake you have done verification two times it should give alarm/report 3. Hot verification : while verification process can go for many days, in between what ever books are being issued or returned or even lost should get reflected in your stock verification automatically. in short it should allow you to issue / return the books while stock verification process is going on 4. previous verification reports should be handy. 5. for cross checking two or more stock verification process should be allowed at a time. For any further clarification you can always give me a call on 9373308287. With best regard Shwetank Upadhyaya Chief Executive Officer Deeksha Systems Pvt. Ltd.
