Van stock, or truck stock, is inventory or products that are stored in a remote worker's vehicle. This can include spare parts or new products they may be selling.
If a business uses Van Stocks, it is important that they manage it correctly, making sure that stock levels are checked and replenished regularly.
Managing your van stock in real-time allows you to replenish your field-based inventory quickly, which is a benefit.

Importance of efficient van stock managementÂ
Van Stock Management shouldn't be a burden or expensive, it should run smoothly like any warehouse. Keeping all usage data up to date in your system is crucial to avoid incorrect deductions.
Some van stock systems store usage data and only update when a user has a data connection or at the end of the day. The continuity of data can be negatively impacted by this, so it's recommended to use a system that updates in real-time.
Users should be able to easily update their stock usage without any time delays or barriers. Imagine how busy the end user might be on a customer's site and all the distractions that come with it. Finding a mobile app that works quickly and is intuitive for the user is important.
