Stock Count by Aisle Sheet
Count the shop the way it is laid out rather than the way the stock list is sorted, so every bay gets counted once and the gaps to a full shelf are visible on the same line as the count.

What this sheet is for
Stop overstock going missing in the back. A drawn plan with coded racks, and a list that matches the labels on the shelves, means a new starter can find the stock and a delivery goes to the right bay first time.
Who it is for
Shop managers, stockroom leads and anyone setting up or reorganising a back room, storeroom or off-site store.
How to use it
- Sketch the room from above with the door at the bottom, and draw each rack and bay in its place.
- Give every rack a letter and every bay a number, then put the same codes on the racks themselves.
- List each code with what is kept there and how it is stacked — cases, loose, hung.
- Name an owner for each area so somebody keeps it as drawn.
- Redraw or amend both the plan and the list together whenever a rack moves.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: A drawn plan of the stockroom with every rack, bay and shelf given a code, and a list of what lives where — so a new starter can find the overstock without asking, and a delivery goes to the right place first time.
Codes on the plan, codes on the racks. Sketch the room from above with the door at the bottom. Give each rack a letter and each bay a number, and write those codes on the racks themselves in the same lettering. The list below is only as useful as the labels on the shelves match it — update both together when something moves.
Write-on lines: Shop / branch · Stockroom · Drawn by · Date drawn
Plan — draw racks, bays, the door, fire exit and any no-stack zones
Squared grid
Location list — one line per rack or bay; say what is kept there and how
Table, 4 rows: Code · Where · What is kept here · Stacked how · Owner · Last checked
Questions
Why draw it rather than just list the locations?
Because a list tells you the code, and the drawing tells you where to walk. Together they mean the person who set the room up does not have to be in on the day the delivery arrives.
Why is there no stacking height or weight limit column?
Because those limits belong to your racking, your building and the rules where you are, not to a sheet. The 'stacked how' column is for your own note of how each bay is kept, and the plan has room to mark any no-stack zones you set.
