For years now I have been asked when traceable items will be included in the stock take. Typically, if there is 'missing' or found stock the users undertaking the stock take know which batch / serial numbers are affected. What should happen is that once the counts are entered, prior to the completion, a simple selection list could appear for those traceable items with missing / found stock so the identification number can be entered or selected (depending on whether you're adding or writing stock) and the relevant stock levels and nominals should then be adjusted.
