Branches & transfers
Move stock between locations
Run a warehouse and multiple branches with transfer history and quantities that stay accurate after sync.
The problem
Spreadsheets cannot keep warehouse, branch, and counter quantities aligned. Novend tracks stock per location and records every transfer.
Outcome
See what each location holds without rebuilding spreadsheets every week.
