Count locally, report centrally

Inventory reporting for branches, kiosks & remote sites

Enable staff at branch locations, kiosks, workshops, and remote service sites to count physical stock locally on their phones and export clean CSV or Excel reports to central management, owners, or purchasing.

The local counting, central reporting workflow

Independent branches and satellite locations need simple counting without complex central server setups. Count on-site and send clean files to head office.

1. Staff count physical stock on-site

Employees at kiosks, branches, or satellite workshops scan barcodes and record accurate on-hand quantities locally.

2. Reliable operation without complex networks

Local work continues smoothly without requiring dedicated VPNs, server connections, or continuous Wi-Fi access.

3. Review local shortage & reorder needs

Branch supervisors verify counted figures and draft local supplier purchase orders if decentralized ordering is used.

4. Export standardized CSV or Excel reports

Generate clean, structured spreadsheet exports with timestamps, product descriptions, SKUs, and counted quantities.

5. Share with head office, accountants, or owners

Send reports instantly via email, messaging apps, or cloud storage to purchasing managers, owners, or central finance.

Frequently asked questions about branch reporting

How does central management receive inventory counts from branches?
Branch staff complete a count session on their phone, export a standardized CSV or Excel spreadsheet, and share it via email, chat, or cloud drive.
Do branches need to be connected to a central server?
No. Each phone runs locally. Staff can count anytime without connecting to a corporate VPN, database, or server infrastructure.
Can paid plans sync data across supported devices?
Yes. Paid plans include cloud sync across supported devices within the same account. CSV and Excel export remain available for sharing reports with managers, owners, accountants, or head office.
