What is the difference between reserved and available stock?

Reserved stock is quantity committed to open sale orders. Available stock is what you can still sell. RetailDek shows current, reserved and available separately so you never oversell.

Is RetailDek good stock management software for India?

Yes — it is stock management software India's small retailers can run without training: HSN codes and GST rates on every item, godown-wise quantities, and Excel import so your existing list comes in as-is.

Can I import my existing item list?

Yes. You can bulk-import items — including HSN codes, prices and opening stock — from an Excel (.xls/.xlsx) file, so migrating your catalogue takes minutes.

Q: How does stock stay accurate?

Every document moves stock automatically — sale orders reserve quantity, sale invoices deduct it, and purchase invoices replenish it. Multi-item writes run inside a transaction, so a stock update never lands halfway.

What you can do

Built around how inventory management actually works in an Indian shop.

Real-time stock per godown

The item_stock_locations model tracks quantity for each company profile / godown separately and keeps a rolled-up total, so you see both location-wise and consolidated stock.

Reserve, deduct, replenish

Sale orders reserve stock, sale invoices deduct it, and purchase invoices replenish it — the three movements that keep availability honest, applied automatically as you work.

Available vs reserved clarity

RetailDek shows current stock, reserved quantity and truly available quantity separately, so you never promise the same piece to two customers.

Bulk import from Excel

Migrate your existing catalogue in minutes — import items with HSN, rates and opening stock straight from an .xls/.xlsx file instead of typing them one by one.

Per-item transaction history

Open any item to see every movement — which invoice deducted it, which purchase added it — a full trail behind each quantity change.

Low-stock visibility

Spot items running thin at a glance so you reorder before you run out, and stop dead stock quietly tying up your cash.
