No mate, since the takeover of the company I worked for I have been promoted to Operations Manager, with the intention of being trained to Branch Manager, so its branch stock I am wanting to control.

Congrats. Have a look at sage and cash first at least then its all controller via 1 app.

Sage Instant will do limited stock control,    Sage 50 will do everything and more

Will it generate alerts when stock is low?

If I remember correctly, It prompted you to order when it hits a threshold,   Re-Order quantity can be adjusted

Only problem I may have is that Sage isn't on my machine, and does the company pay per user?

I'd assume the best way for the co. to control its stock would be though Mentor's Cash for Windows ?

Must admit I've not seen anything about stock on cash. Does this work in the same way as sage?

purchasable module, I assume Sage & Cash come from the new owner ?

We are using cash and sage from the old company at the moment, until it all merges into one.

Might be an idea to ask the parent co. if they use Cash for stock control & they might get your version to updated to match theres ?
