Tracking your inventory

DISTRYB can only see the sales that happen through it — orders on the platform and your Bottl.Service storefront. If you also ring up sales at a register DISTRYB isn't connected to, those sales are invisible here, and the stock DISTRYB shows for you only ever goes up with deliveries until someone counts the shelf.

That is why, as a retailer, you are asked once: how do you track inventory?

Track my inventory in DISTRYB

Choose this if DISTRYB is where your stock lives — you log deliveries here, count here, and either sell only through the platform or record your other sales here too.

• DISTRYB's stock number is your stock number.
• Online availability trusts it.
• The stock watcher checks it every morning and tells you when something doesn't add up — a recount that removed bottles with no reason, an order whose stock moved late, a count that disagrees with the catalog.

I track inventory somewhere else

Choose this if your register or inventory system is the record, and you use DISTRYB for ordering, invoices and online sales.

• Stock shown in DISTRYB is a reference, not the truth.
• The watcher leaves your numbers alone — it would otherwise warn you about "unexplained" stock that simply sold at the counter.
• Deliveries you record here still land in your books and your cost basis.

Changing your answer

Company → How you track inventory. Change it any time; nothing is deleted either way. If you move from "somewhere else" to DISTRYB, do a physical count first so the number you're now trusting starts from the shelf, not from a total that never came down.

Connecting your POS

Coming soon. When a register is connected, its sales flow into DISTRYB as they happen — which counts as tracking in DISTRYB, and closes the blind spot without you doing anything by hand. This guide will carry the setup steps when it's available.
