The difference between a Stock Take and an Ad Hoc Stock Take

What's the difference between a Stock Take and an Ad Hoc Stock Take?

The Stock Take option carries out a full stock take. Any items not accounted for during the stock take will have their quantity reset to 0.

The AdHoc Stock Take option is for partial stock takes, allowing you to select which items you would like to stock take whilst leaving the rest untouched.
