Mr. Ahmad,

 

As per your question i hope to shine some light with this brief answer that by my opinion contains most simplified definition of stock control relevant to your query.

  

Stock can mean different things and depends on the industry the firm operates in. It includes:

 

Raw materials and components from suppliers

Work in progress or part finished goods made within the business

Finished goods ready to dispatch to customers

Consumables and materials used by service businesses

 

In order to meet customer orders, product has to be available from stock – although some firms are able to arrange deliveries Just in Time, see below. If a business does not have the necessary stock to meet orders, this can lead to a loss of sales and a damaged business reputation. This is sometimes called a ‘stock-out’.

It is important therefore that a business either holds sufficient stocks to meet actual and anticipated orders, or can get stocks quickly enough to meet those orders. For a high street retailer, in practice this means having product on the shelves.

However, there are many costs of holding stock, so a business does not wish to hold too much stock either.
