Employees can now allocate items into a customer stock area to give a clear sense of what belongs to who.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By simply scanning the QR code, an employee can keep track of existing stock levels and allocate stock to client jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As our system is built in <a href=\"http:\/\/smarterbusinessprocesses.com\/appsheet\/\">AppSheet,<\/a> it can also link to Smartsheet to provide data storage. AppSheet&nbsp;records the movement of stock in and out at the front end, while Smartsheet stores that information at the back end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means it can update stock once it\u2019s been booked out, and automatically send that data to a report, giving senior management a real time overview of the stock situation any time they need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The client&nbsp;has&nbsp;also taken&nbsp;advantage of Smartsheet\u2019s own&nbsp;reporting tools, using the data for their own&nbsp;Reports&nbsp;and&nbsp;Dashboards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Testimonial<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through your help we were able to expand our use cases across various departments which has had a positive impact right across the business.
