Merger proposal

I propose to merge Stock control into the present page. The topic is identical. Also, the content of the article should probably be revised to emphasize more the control aspects leaving the optimization part for the Inventory optimization page. --Joannes Vermorel (talk) 10:08, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Joannes Vermorel I propose that Inventory management software be merged into Inventory control. I think the first topic would be better discussed under the context of the second. Also I agree with your proposal too Lbertolotti (talk) 19:57, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support merge of Stock control with Inventory control. As for Inventory management software I would suggest using WP:Summary style and keeping a separate article. CorporateM (Talk) 22:32, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Joannes Vermorel I too agree with your proposal to merge Inventory control with Stock control Ani Kuriakose (talk) 08:54, 5 April 2015 (UTC)--User:Ani Kuriakose (talk) 05 April 2015 (IST)[reply]

Done. Perhaps now there should be two sections which summarize the optimization and software aspects.Lbertolotti (talk) 04:49, 19 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Another merger

@Joannes Vermorel @CorporateM @Ani Kuriakose @Ian Glossop @User:Pippin Bear I think Inventory control and Inventory control system should be merged.Lbertolotti (talk) 01:38, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support merge. Both of these articles are little more than stubs and though they are not quite exactly the same topic, each is best understood when discussed within the context of the other, since WP:SUMMARYSTYLE is not a concern where so small an amount of combined content is involved. I see only upside to a merger, provided due attention is given to redirects (including WP:Double redirects). This article (Inventory control) should remain the namespace for the merged article, with inventory control system redirecting here. Snow ^{let's rap} 09:57, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done.Lbertolotti (talk) 15:50, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Internal control

"It can also be referred as internal control - an accounting procedure or system designed to promote efficiency or assure the implementation of a policy or safeguard assets or avoid fraud and error etc."

This is very marginally related to stock control.Lbertolotti (talk) 14:27, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
