Help center & user guide
Step-by-step instructions for every part of ekomeye.
Products, variants & stock
Products work for any business — clothing, food, cosmetics, electronics, furniture. Set a unit (pcs, kg, litre, box, pair…), brand, barcode, SKU and an optional expiry date.
Colours & sizes (variants)
- When you add a product, type colours (e.g. Red, Blue) and/or sizes (S, M, L).
- ekomeye creates one variant per combination (T-shirt - Red / M) with its own SKU, price and stock. Add more colours or sizes later from the product page — only missing combinations are added.
- Orders, purchases and stock entries use the variants; the main product shows the total stock.
Stock in, adjust, damage & lost
- Stock in — goods received without a purchase order: quantity, date, unit cost (updates the average cost) and expiry date.
- Adjust — + or − after a recount.
- Damaged — broken or expired items. Lost — missing or stolen items. Both are valued at cost and shown as a loss in Profit & loss.
Each entry has a stock date (the day it really happened — you can enter past dates) and is also stamped with when it was entered. Reports use the stock date.
Use Products → Stock in / adjust / damage / lost or the box on each product. Every change is listed in Stock movements and in Reports → Stock with stock date, entry time, type, value and user.
Stock report & alerts
Reports → Stock report shows, for any period, opening stock, stock in, sold, adjusted, damaged, closing stock and stock value per product, plus products expiring in the next 60 days. Low-stock and expiring products also appear on the dashboard.
