Report title in ERP: <b>Brand wise stock</b>

<p><b>What it shows.</b> One row per brand for the selected period, with four blocks — <b>Opening</b>, <b>In</b>, <b>Out</b> and <b>Closing</b> — each showing Quantity, Value and After Tax value. A total row sums all brands.</p>

<p><b>When to use it.</b> Use it for period stock reviews and brand-level analysis — to see how much of each brand came in, went out, and remained, in both quantity and value terms.</p>

<h2 id="faq">FAQ</h2>

<p><b>What do Opening, In, Out and Closing mean?</b><br><b>Opening</b> is the stock at the start of the period, <b>In</b> and <b>Out</b> are receipts and issues during the period, and <b>Closing</b> is the stock left at the end.</p>

<p><b>What is the difference between Value and After Tax?</b><br><b>Value</b> is the stock value before tax; <b>After Tax</b> includes the applicable tax.</p>

<p><b>How is this different from Item Group Wise Stock?</b><br>This report groups by brand. <a href="#/inventory/reports/item-group-wise-stock">Item Group Wise Stock</a> groups the same opening/in/out/closing view by item group.</p>

<p><b>Why is my report empty?</b><br>No stock movement matches the date range and brand filter, or selected brands have no assigned items.</p>

<p><b>Which movements count as In and Out?</b><br>Approved inventory receipts and issues in the period — GRN, DN, transfers, adjustments, and related postings per configuration.</p>

<p><b>Are items without a brand excluded?</b><br>Items with no brand may appear under a blank or unassigned grouping depending on report layout.</p>
