The ledger

Know what you have. See how it got there.

Stop asking which stock number is the right one. Tare7 builds on-hand from what arrived, moved, sold, and changed at each location—and keeps the history behind the answer.

The result

You can see all 209 elbows across four locations and open the history behind any number that does not look right.

Where this helps

Anyone who keeps stock in more than one place—a shop, a van, a stockroom, a warehouse, or the back of a market stall.

What you can stop doing

The spreadsheet nobody quite trusts

A spreadsheet gives you a number. When that number does not match the shelf, it cannot tell you what arrived, what was used, or who changed it. Tare7 keeps the story behind every quantity, so you can find the answer instead of starting another recount.

Why it matters

When you trust the number, you can reorder with confidence, promise an item to a customer, and stop buying things you already have.

A worked example

Watch the loose ends disappear, step by step.

A plumbing company keeps the same copper elbow in the shop, on two vans, and at a jobsite. Here is how Tare7 always knows what is left.

  1. 1

    Load 50 onto Van 1

    The shop drops by 50 as Van 1 gains 50. Both sides happen together, so stock never appears in two places—or disappears between them.

  2. 2

    Use 20 on a repipe

    The technician records what the job used. Van 1 drops by 20, and the material cost stays connected to that customer’s work.

  3. 3

    Two turn up behind the seat

    Add the two back with the reason “found stock.” Months later, you can still see why the number changed.

  4. 4

    One box gets crushed

    Record two as damaged. They are no longer available, and the loss does not get confused with a sale or a missing item.

  5. 5

    Six go into today's job

    Use six more. Van 1 now has 24—not because someone typed 24, but because Tare7 followed every movement that led there.

  6. 6

    Sell one at the counter

    The quantity becomes 23, and the cost follows the item into the sale so you can see what you actually earned.

You can see all 209 elbows across four locations and open the history behind any number that does not look right.

RECEIVE, RELEASE, TRANSFER and ADJUST. Transfers are a matched pair sharing one reference; adjustments carry a reason code. Nothing in the app edits or deletes a row that has been written.

Before you rely on it

What this feature does not try to do.

If one of these limits matters to your business, it is better to know before you move the work—not after.

  • Each plan includes a set number of locations: one on Solo, two on Mobile, five on Team, and unlimited locations on Scale. You can add more locations when you need them.
  • Scale can record the bin where goods were received. It does not yet direct warehouse staff through put-away or replenishment routes.
  • Scale can capture serial numbers when goods arrive, but it does not yet follow each serialized unit through every later movement.
  • Tare7 can record batch and expiry details and suggest which stock to use first. The picker still makes the final choice.
  • A transfer moves stock from one location to another as soon as you post it. There is not currently an “in transit” stage between the two.
  • Each item uses one stocking unit. Tare7 does not yet convert automatically between a case and an individual item.
