Scan. Count. Done.

Fast WooCommerce
stocktakes

Stop wasting weekends on stock counts. Two flexible modes, smart completion options that account for sales during counting, and one-click sync to WooCommerce. What used to take days now takes hours.

Starting a WooCommerce stocktake
The problem

Stocktakes are
a nightmare

Paper lists. Manual counting. Hours typing numbers into WooCommerce. Orders coming in while you're counting - making your numbers wrong before you even finish. Sound familiar?

Problem 1

Paper lists and data entry

Print product list, count on paper, spend Sunday typing numbers into WooCommerce. Prone to errors and mind-numbingly slow.

Problem 2

Sales happen while you count

Orders come in during your stocktake. By the time you apply your counts, the numbers are already wrong.

Problem 3

No variance visibility

You counted 47, WooCommerce says 50. But which is right? No way to review discrepancies before committing.

Problem 4

One size fits nobody

Some products need scanning, some need traditional counting. Some locations need full counts, others just spot checks. No flexibility.

The solution

Stocktakes designed for real businesses

Two modes for different workflows

Count Sheet mode for traditional counting with printed lists. Tally mode for scanning - each scan adds +1 to the count. Use whichever fits your workflow, or mix both.

  • Count Sheet: print blank or pre-filled sheets
  • Tally: scan barcodes, quantities add up
  • Works with camera or USB/Bluetooth scanner

Count exactly what you need

Run stocktakes by location type, specific named locations, or just WooCommerce managed stock. Include or exclude variations. Include or exclude zero-stock items. You control the scope.

  • Filter by location type or specific location
  • Include variations optionally
  • Include zero-stock items optionally

Confirm, flag, or reject each item

Every counted item can be confirmed, flagged for review, or rejected. See variances before you commit. Know exactly what changed and why.

  • Confirm items that match expected stock
  • Flag items that need investigation
  • Reject items you don't want to update

Three ways to complete your stocktake

Choose how your counts are applied. The real-time adjustment option is a game-changer.

Record only

Save your counts without updating WooCommerce stock. Perfect for audits, spot checks, or when you need manager approval before applying changes.

Set stock values

Replace WooCommerce stock with your counted values. Simple and direct - what you counted is what gets set. Good for complete location resets.

Real-time adjustment

The smart option. Fetches current stock at completion, accounts for sales that happened during your stocktake, and calculates the correct adjustments. Your counts stay accurate even if orders came in while you were counting.

Why real-time adjustment matters: You counted 47 items at 10am. By 2pm when you complete the stocktake, 3 orders shipped. Traditional systems would set stock to 47, losing those 3 sales. Stokkap sees the sales, calculates the actual variance, and adjusts correctly. No lost sales, no stock errors.

Tally mode: scan your way through

Walk around scanning products. Each scan adds +1 to that item's count. Fast, accurate, and impossible to mis-count.

Scan with any device

Use your phone camera, tablet, or plug in a USB/Bluetooth barcode scanner. Every scan beeps and adds +1. Keep scanning until you've counted everything.

  • Phone camera scanning built in
  • USB and Bluetooth scanners supported
  • Audio and vibration feedback

Works offline in the warehouse

Cache your products before heading to areas with poor signal. Run your entire stocktake offline. Everything syncs when you're back online.

  • Cache products for offline counting
  • Full scanning works without internet
  • Auto-sync when connection returns

Tally mode requires products to have barcodes assigned. Learn about barcode scanning and GTIN management.

Count Sheet mode: traditional counting, modern tools

Prefer printed lists and manual counting? Count Sheet mode gives you the familiar workflow with none of the data entry pain.

Print blank or filled

Print count sheets with expected quantities pre-filled, or blank for blind counts. Whatever works for your audit requirements.

Enter counts digitally

Type your counted values directly into Stokkap. No more spreadsheet imports or WooCommerce admin hunting. Fast, searchable, accurate.

See variances instantly

As you enter counts, see exactly how they compare to expected stock. Spot discrepancies immediately, investigate while you're still in the stockroom.

Stocktake for WooCommerce FAQs

Common questions about running stocktakes with Stokkap.

Can I pause and resume a stocktake?

Yes. Your progress is saved automatically. Close the app, come back tomorrow, pick up exactly where you left off. Perfect for large counts that span multiple days.

What if orders come in during my stocktake?

Use real-time adjustment on completion. Stokkap fetches current stock, sees what sold since you started counting, and calculates the correct adjustments. Your counts stay accurate.

Do I need barcodes for stocktakes?

Only for Tally mode scanning. Count Sheet mode works with any products - just enter quantities manually. You can mix both modes in the same stocktake.

Can multiple people count at the same time?

Yes. Create separate stocktakes for different locations or sections. Each person counts their area, then complete each stocktake independently.
