Product Movement in Distribution

Tracking product movement is a critical component for efficient distribution management. Here’s how it benefits businesses:

Control and Transparency
A robust tracking system provides clear and accurate information about:

• The current location of each product,

• The employee responsible for it,

• When and why any changes occurred.

This ensures that business processes are organized and transparent. For example, if a product is misplaced or delivery is delayed, the issue is immediately identified. Errors do not remain hidden and can be addressed promptly.

Enhanced Accountability
Product tracking strengthens employee accountability. By knowing the exact location of each product, the responsible party, and the timeline of changes:

• Employees carry out their duties accurately and responsibly. Every action is logged in the system, reducing the risk of errors or oversight.

• Situations such as “I don’t know” or “it got lost” are minimized because all processes are transparent and monitored.

• Workflow efficiency improves, and issues are resolved more quickly.

Reduced Financial Losses
Financial control is a common challenge in distribution. Typical issues include:

• Unrecorded expenses,

• Incorrectly entered orders,

• Returns that are unrecorded or forgotten.

Tracking product movement allows businesses to identify these problems promptly. This ensures cash flow is effectively monitored and unnecessary losses are minimized.
