Identify stock that deserves a review before it absorbs more storage space and working capital.
Hosporiq requires at least 90 days of reliable closing counts and movement evidence for alcohol dead-stock findings. A single closing count cannot establish that a product is dead stock. Review repeated counts and receipts over comparable periods. Stable high balances after new deliveries can indicate a reorder pattern worth investigating, especially for limited-demand products.
A seasonal wine, reserve spirit or event-specific product may intentionally move slowly. Review menu use, expected events and supplier commitments before labelling it unnecessary. Stock value can help prioritize the review, but it cannot explain operational intent by itself.
Ask whether a reorder can be paused, menu placement changed or stock reassigned after management review. Distinguish a transfer suggestion from an executed transfer transaction. Avoid recording stock as moved until the receiving and sending venues have confirmed the actual movement.
No. Review several comparable periods and the product’s purpose. Slow movement is a signal for investigation, not an automatic write-off decision.
