Stock management (ระบบ สต๊อก สินค้า, which is the term in Thai) is the process of monitoring and controlling the levels of inventory in a company.

Stock Management: Detailed Info
In the past, the stock was managed by physically counting inventory and checking off items as they were sold. With the advent of technology, this process has been automated. Some organizations use barcodes to automate the process but it still requires human input to scan and identify the appropriate parcel label.
RFID tags are more advanced and can be used to automate the whole process, from identifying the parcels to printing labels. This system of management can be integrated with other systems like accounting software, CRM, ERP, etc. It can help managers keep track of their stocks so they know when they need to order more from their suppliers or when they need to increase production if there are too many products left unsold at the end of each day.
To keep track of parcels, companies need to keep records of what they have in stock and where it is located. This system can be either manual or computerized depending on how large the company is.
Manual stock management would involve using pen and paper while computerized one would use software like SAP ERP or Oracle ERP which has features like inventory control, ordering, customer service, production control, etc
