Know what's in stock, and where, in real time.
Real-time across every store and every warehouse.
Most POS systems treat stock as an afterthought. ninoPOS treats it as the heartbeat — every sale, transfer, return, and adjustment is reflected in seconds, with multi-warehouse transfers and a full, immutable audit trail.

- No audit trail when things "just go missing"
With ninoPOS Inventory

- Stock adjustments with reasons keep counts honest
- Low-stock SMS / email when re-order point is hit
- Inter-store transfers with goods-in-transit visibility

How Inventory works in practice
Step by step — from the customer touch to the final ledger entry.
1. Receive stock
Goods receipt note logs new stock and updates warehouse quantities. Barcodes generated if needed.
2. Sell at POS
Sale auto-deducts from the selling store's warehouse in real time.
3. Transfer between stores
Mark goods-in-transit at source, mark received at destination. Variances are flagged.
4. Get a low-stock alert
Re-order point hit → SMS / email / dashboard alert with suggested PO quantity.
5. Adjust with reason
Damaged or lost? Log it with reason. Audit log preserves the chain of custody.
6. Stock-take
Periodic count — system flags variances, you approve, books stay clean.
Local payments, currencies, and connectivity — sorted out of the box
Inventory ships with M-Pesa, multi-currency, offline-resilient checkout, and WhatsApp customer messaging baked in — no plugin, no add-on.
- Record M-Pesa & mobile-money payments
- TZS, KES, UGX, RWF, USD — multi-currency invoicing
- Offline mode for areas with unstable internet
- WhatsApp for receipts, reminders, and orders
- Local tax (VAT) reporting baked in
Frequently asked questions
Specific to Inventory.
Does it support batch and expiry tracking?
Batch & expiry tracking (lot numbers, expiry dates, FEFO) is on our roadmap — Coming Soon. Today ninoPOS gives you real-time stock, adjustments with reasons, multi-warehouse transfers, and low-stock alerts.
How do transfers between stores work?
Source store dispatches → goods-in-transit → destination store receives. Variances are flagged and need manager approval to clear.
Can I print barcode labels?
Yes. Bulk-generate and print labels in standard label-printer formats.
What if my Wi-Fi drops mid-stock-take?
The stock-take app works offline; counts queue and sync when you're back online.
Can I value stock in USD when my currency is TZS?
Yes. Stock valuation reports support any of your configured reporting currencies.
