1 | Check Stock System Interface Setup
This article explains the procedure for implementing the Bepoz interface to the stock system called Check. Bepoz exports sales data to Check on a daily basis - after the new day starts, for the previous day(s). Check then processes this information to update its Quantity On Hand. Bepoz only sends Sales Data; no Transfers or Stock Losses or other Stock Adjustments are sent. This is done using a Stock Report which is exported via a BackOffice Extension.

Bepoz only sends Sales Data; no Transfers or Stock Losses or other Stock Adjustments are sent. This is done using a Stock Report which is exported via a BackOffice Extension.
Check will then create a Bepoz Product Import file to update the Bepoz Quantity on Hand and Costs which is implemented as a Scheduled Job in Bepoz.
