Generally, the higher the goods turnover and more frequent changes in inventory, the more often it’s appropriate to conduct inventory. It’s also important to consider the results of annual inventory. For stores or branches with poor results, it’s advisable to conduct inventories more frequently and focus on inventory and asset protection and management. <\/p>\n\n
