-The inconvenience caused by closure of the store varies from minor to significant. The benefit of using mSupply's stocktake module, while requiring that the store is closed while the physical stock check is in progress, is that the store may be opened immediately after the physical count is completed. Entry of the adjusted figures into mSupply(r) may be made at any convenient time over the next few days.  Having said that normal operation can occur immediately after the stocktake, issuance will be affected by any discrepancies discovered during the stocktake.+The inconvenience caused by closure of the store varies from minor to significant.

 +===== Preparing for the stocktake =====
 +Prior to conducting anything but the most trivial partial stocktake, it is highly recommended to confirm or delete all customer invoices with status = ''sg''.
 +
 +It is also recommended to delete any 'Current' stocktakes (status = ''sg'') in case they are accidentally finalised.  If your store has fallen into significant disuse then this could be a daunting exercise. The mSupply Foundation has developed some code that deletes all customer invoices with status = ''sg'' and all 'Current' stocktakes (status = ''sg'').
 +
 +This is clearly a blunt instrument and should only be used with the greatest caution (the support team will guide you!). If you are interested in taking this risk, please contact [[support@msupply.foundation]] and reference [[https://wiki.sussol.net/doku.php/support:footrunner_library:delete_sg_nw_invoice_and_stocktake|Delete "sg" and "new" customer invoices and unfinalised stocktakes in the current store]].

 +When searching for items and stock to add to a stocktake, stock that belongs to items that are invisible in the current store will always be available to be added. You will not be able to add new stock lines for items that are invisible in your store but you will be able to add existing stock for invisible items - it will show up in searches, just as though the item was visible in your store.
