An unsigned delivery becomes the store's problem
Goods left without a signature still appear on the distributor's statement. Disproving a delivery you never received is not possible with a shelf count.
WHY A STORE WOULD WANT THIS
The store is the one being accused, every time.
Consignment disputes default to the store's disadvantage. The distributor's number is systematic and the store's number is a person with a clipboard, so the store loses arguments it should win.
Returns vanish between systems
A store that returns damaged stock has a paper docket and a driver's name. The distributor has nothing, so the credit does not arrive.
Month-end becomes an argument
Staff spend hours counting and then defending the count. It is the least valuable work in the store and it happens every month.
Slow stock cannot be moved
Transferring stock between branches is normal retail practice and it breaks the distributor's records, so stores either stop doing it or stop reporting it.
A shared balance does not favour either side. It just removes the part where one party's record is treated as the truth.
If you consign stock, or hold it.
What is worth most is the shape of your month end: how long it takes and what you usually disagree about.
