How to create a Stock Movement

In this article, we will cover the steps you need to take to create a stock movement directly from the platform.

Note: This feature is only relevant if you are using a Bemakers' warehouse. If you are using your own warehouse only, you can add the inventory to individual products, learn more here.

Let's get started! 

1. Go to Fulfillment 
2. Click on the Stock movements option
3. Click on Create stock movement in the top right corner

1. Specify the date that the shipment will be sent.
2. If you know the date that the shipment is expected to arrive at the warehouse, please add that date also — however, it's an optional field.
3. For shipments between European countries (excluding within DK), it is mandatory to provide the ARC number, a unique Administrative Reference Code, for stock movement. If your shipment falls under this category, ensure to include the ARC number. However, for shipments outside of this scope, the ARC number is not a required field and can be omitted.
4. Additionally, when shipping between European countries (excluding within DK), it is essential to upload the electronic Administrative Document (eAD) generated for the movement. This step ensures swift and accurate product registration upon arrival at the warehouse.
5. Specify (1) how many pallets the warehouse should expect

6. Choose the carrier for the stock movement and provide the tracking ID for the shipment. You receive the tracking ID when you create your shipping label with your carrier . The tracking ID ensures that Bemakers can track the stock movement throughout its journey.

   • Choose "Other" to enter a different carrier name

7. Add the incoming products. 

Adding the products

When you select a product, you will need to indicate the number of incoming products and the batch. Additionally, you are required to provide the expiry date for the batch, ensuring that it matches the expiry date on the product label. If the product does not have an expiry date, simply click the "Product does not expire" option.

Note: Please be aware that batches expiring in less than 6 months will not be eligible for sale via Bemakers Trade due to our regulations.

If you ship your products to the Bemakers' German warehouse, you will need to provide additional information for each product. Specifically, you will need to specify (1) the box dimensions in which the product is shipped and (2) the amount of products in each box. 

Repeat these steps for each product that you are shipping to Bemakers German warehouse. 

The stock movement can be saved as a draft while you work on it. Once you submit it, the warehouse will be notified about the incoming goods
