Issue Stock
1. Requesting items from Stores
A request should be generated according to local procedures either via an online or paper form, and appropriately approved.
It is essential that only authorised people are able to request stock items. Departmental Administrators are required to maintain (and review at least annually) a list of authorised staff.
2. Issuing stock
Issues should be made following local procedures.
Details of what was issued, to whom, when, etc. must be recorded
as soon as possible after a physical issue from stores has been made. (Issue Inventory Goods 
(169kb))
As with receiving, all issues of ethanol must be logged in an ethanol register for HM Customs & Excise purposes.
3. Monitoring stock levels
When physically issuing an item from stores it is important to note where stock levels are low and so there may be a need to order new stocks. See Reviewing stock needs for further information.
