Use wastage to lower stock levels and record why the stock was wasted.

Steps

  1. In Shopwave Admin, click Stores. On the store's row, click Wastage. Previous wastages are listed here.

  2. Click + New.

  3. Start typing the Product name and choose the product.

  4. Enter the Wastage quantity and check the Unit price.

  5. Choose a Reason, for example Wastage (Out of Date). Add a note if you want, for example "Sell by date expired".

  6. Click Complete.

What you should see

Wastage Submitted Successfully! shows the wastage ID and how many adjustments were made. The stock levels can take a few minutes to update.

Good to know

  • The quantities you enter lower the stock level of each product.

  • To see wastage over time, run a Wastage report in Merchant > Reports.

  • If you make a mistake, correct the stock with a stocktake, a stock invoice or another wastage.
