Stock discrepancy can be reduced when there is a competent stock keeper that is very meticulous in carrying out his duty. It is always important to ensure that there is accuracy in the number of stock in the store and the one that is recorded. Doing this will make the business effective.

Stock discrepancy happens when actual inventory doesn't match records, often due to errors, damage, theft, or miscounts. It can disrupt inventory management and financial reporting. To manage it, conduct regular audits, track stock with reliable systems, and investigate any mismatches to identify and resolve the root causes quickly.
