Zoho Inventory provides two methods of stock tracking:

  • Accounting Stock: This represents the stock level in your books upon recording a transaction. The accounting stock of an item, increases whenever you record Bills and decreases when you create Invoices.
  • Physical Stock: This indicates the stock level in your inventory when you physically move the stock from/to your warehouse. The physical stock of an item increases when you record Purchase receives and decreases when you create Shipments.

You can view the quantity available in both modes of stock tracking on the item details page for better comparison of the stock level.
