Planning your learning
It is important to plan your learning before you start because you may already have some of the knowledge and skills that are covered in this Learner’s Guide. This might be because:
• you have been working in the industry for some time, and/or
• you have already completed training in this area.
Together with your supervisor or trainer use the checklists on the following pages to help you plan your study program. Your answers to the questions in the checklist will help you work out which sections of this Learner’s Guide you need to complete.
This Learner’s Guide is written with the idea that learning is made more relevant when you, the learner, are actually working in the industry. This means that you will have people within the enterprise who can show you things, discuss how things are done and answer any questions you have. Also you can practise what you learn and see how what you learn is applied in the enterprise.
If you are working through this Learner’s Guide and have not yet found a job in the industry, you will need to talk to your trainer about doing work experience or working and learning in some sort of simulated workplace.

How does your workplace receive stock?
How is stock received at your workplace?
Systems for maintaining stock are important to make sure that work is not held up or delayed while essential supplies are being ordered. As stock is received in your workplace, checks need to be made so that what is actually paid for or billed is actually received and is in good condition.
Other considerations include making sure that stock does not have to be thrown out because it has passed its use by date or has reached the point where it is no longer able to be used.
Foodstuffs, film, medicines and chemicals are examples of stocks that have to be used by a certain time. Safety is also important, as some supplies cannot be stored with others – imagine storing poisons with foodstuffs!
Workplaces have systems in place to ensure that stock is:
• available when it is required
• fit for use
• managed cost effectively and wastage is kept to a minimum.
Every workplace will have differences in how stock is ordered, received and stored. Your first task will be to become familiar with the stock receiving area and understanding how stock is processed. You may have worked in the area that is responsible for ordering stock or even had to order stock yourself. Understanding the ordering system will help you understand what is required in the receiving area.
Arrange, either as part of your induction or when you begin to work in the receiving area, to be given a tour of the area.
Speak to your supervisor or trainer and ask how stock is ordered. It is important to be able to see the process of receiving stock as part of a bigger picture of stock control.
As part of your investigation, also find out what happens to the stock before it is placed in storage. Later in this unit, you will be looking at maintaining stock in the storage area.
The following activities ask you to investigate the layout of the stock storage area and types of goods received in your workplace.

Activity 2: An overview of stock control
When you have found out about how receiving stock fits into the big picture of stock control, answer the following questions. • what sort of stock is received at your workplace? • how does the stock arrive (transport mode and company)? • what documentation or records are attached to the stock? • how is the particular stock item ordered?
Use the table on the following page to record this information for a range of stock items. You might need some time to fill this out. Try to get a variety of examples from different suppliers and collect this information over a period of time.

What do you do when stock is received at your workplace?
So far, you have looked at how stock arrives at your workplace. The next step to look at is what you do with the stock when it arrives.
While some enterprises have moved to paperless offices and processes, most of the stock arriving at your workplace will have a set of documents attached or inside the stock containers.
The types of documents associated with receipt of stock are:
• order (this will be generated at your workplace)
• consignment note (this will detail transport details, quantities sent, identifiers of company supplying, etc)
• packing slip (this is an internal document advising the packer for the supplier what to pack and may not always be included or the consignment note and packaging slip may be the same document)
• invoice (this will come from the supplier and include transport or delivery costs and quantities and types of items supplied).
These documents might be found:
• inside the stock
• attached to the stock
• loose with the stock and handed over by the deliverer
• sent separately via mail, fax or email.
It is critical to have a record of what was ordered, what was supposed to arrive and for you to check that the stock actually arrived. Also, the stock must be checked to ensure that it is fit for use.
For example, in the paper industry, a roll of paper that will have plastic or foil laminated onto it, may arrive without any protective layer as the first hundred meters will be wasted in setting up the machine and getting it running correctly. The edge may be trimmed in the process. The excess acts as appropriate packaging for the roll of paper and is allowed for. If the outer layer is marked, this will not matter as it is trimmed off or wasted.
TLIA3907B Receive and store stock

In many workplaces, the deliverer cannot leave until the receiver provides a signature on the suppliers’ documentation. In most enterprises, the signing of this document indicates that the goods arrived as listed on the consignment notice. In this case, it should not be signed unless the stock has been checked.
When checking stock, the stock received should be counted and checked to see that quantities match that listed on the consignment note. At the same time, the stock should be checked for:
• damage that means stock cannot be used
• fitness to use (spoiled, soiled, dinted, cracked, etc.)
• use by date (freshness, viability, etc.)
• colour, size (stock may be of the correct number but wrong size, colour, etc.).
Where any variations or problems with supplied stock are identified, check workplace procedures that apply to this situation. Options include:
• replacement
• credit
• disposal and credit
• selling off as ‘seconds’
• repair and charging to supplier
• return to supplier.
In most cases, a phone call and discussion with the supplier can sort out the situation. The relationships between the receiver of the goods, the deliverer and the supplier are important. Good relationships built up over time, through patience, being reasonable and using positive communication skills (listening, questioning, not being aggressive) will mean that when a problem exists, it can be sorted out more easily.
The option taken when there is a problem with supply of ordered stock will depend on factors such as the value of stock, urgency of need for stock, replacement time, whether supplier is internal or external.
A common problem with stock ordering is where the supplier cannot deliver the quantity required and places a ‘short order’ – in other words, if 500 items are required and only 250 can be supplied, these will be delivered and the remainder of the order delivered as and when
TLIA3907B Receive and store stock

it becomes available. The short fall in the stock received should be noted and reported according to workplace procedures.
The following activities ask you to investigate problems that arise in stock receival and how stock is received.

What’s involved in stock storage?
Where and how is stock stored?
In Section One you looked at the processes of receiving stock and checking what you received against orders placed. In this section you will look at storing the stock safely and in accordance with workplace procedures. This may involve storing stock that has special requirements for handling and storage and completing records and documentation.
Once the stock is received and checked against what was ordered and delivered, the stock must be stored. A number of factors will have been considered in designing the storage area:
• people safety when storage area is entered
• available space
• shape of containers or stock (drums, on pallets, cartons, racks or shelves, etc.)
• maintenance of condition of stock (protection from water, dirt, sunlight, physical damage)
• security of stock
• cost of storage equipment (shelving, racks, trays, other)
• availability of mechanical aids for moving stock (forklift, hand trolleys, carts, etc.)
• minimising distance and number of times that stock is moved
• stock rotation to ensure older stock is used first and before use by date
• whether stock is itself hazardous (separation of some chemicals from other chemicals that could cause ignition or explosion; radiation; flammability and flash point; biological material that is potentially or actually harmful to humans; other dangerous goods classifications)
• other issues such as those faced where living material is stored or where refrigeration is required.
When storing stock, your aim should be to complete the process of storage as quickly as possible and in a safe manner. Associated with this task is the need for accuracy in placing stock in locations that follow the stock storage system and accuracy in recording what you have stored.

Activity 6: Storage areas and types of storage
Take some time to look at the storage areas used in your workplace. Try to work out why the stock is stored as it is. Do a small survey of team members who use the storage area and see whether you can identify any improvements to the system in place. Use the table below to record the results of your research. An example is provided for you. Try to find 6 examples of different storage methods used in your workplace.

What’s involved in stock storage?
Safety is the primary concern of all enterprises and applies to stock storage. Safety issues are relevant to:
• yourself and other team members involved in stock storage
• team members passing through the storage area
• team members accessing stock from storage.
When storing stock, you will use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to ensure that you do not injure or harm yourself or others.
Regulations apply to the handling of a range of hazardous substances. Examples include:
• flammable substances
• radioactive substances
• biological materials
• heavy objects
• explosive goods.
Legislation and regulations cover the handling of such substances under the Australian Dangerous Goods (ADG) Code. Goods covered by this legislation must also be labelled appropriately and may have particular storage requirements. Check with your supervisor or trainer for advice on whether stock that you are required to handle and store comes under this Code and what is required to safely handle these goods.
Further information can be found in the Learner’s Guide for unit TDT D27 98B Prepare for transport of packaged dangerous goods. Some categories of dangerous goods must be segregated from other stock. Examples include foodstuffs and corrosive substances. Dangerous goods should be labelled appropriately.
The next activity asks you to investigate special handling and storage requirements for dangerous goods.

What records are kept?
Many enterprises have a computerised system for recording stock levels. Paper-‐based systems might also be used although these are being replaced in many enterprises.
Regardless of how the system is designed, the system will only track stock if the information on stock received and used or despatched, is accurate and entered in a timely manner.
Retail environments usually allow for a 1% ‘shrinkage’. This allows for theft, unreported use and breakage and errors. It is possible to achieve accuracy close to or at 100%, provided:
• the system being used is accurate and not able to be corrupted (by viruses, unauthorised entries, etc)
• all users enter information into the system in a timely and accurate manner
• all users are trained in how to use the system
• checks are made to ensure system is accurate.
In the next activity, you are asked to describe the system used in your workplace.

What labelling is required on stock in storage?
If stock is placed in storage without a label, then it can get confused with other stock, particularly where similar looking items are stored. Some enterprises use bar coding and a hand held scanner to keep track of stock. This is an easy way to do a stock take as items can be scanned, the information down loaded onto a computer and compared to what should be in stock. This is in fact done in supermarkets. Information such as stock approaching use by dates can also be identified from the scanning of the bar code.
Putting items into containers that are labelled can be an alternative to marking each item and suits small, numerous items such as bolts, screws and nails of different sizes. This system is used in hardware stores.
Labelling requirements will depend on factors such as:
• size of individual items
• end use of item
• regulations and legislation
• storage systems
• similarity or difference of items (whether items can be confused with each other)
• range within same items (sizes and colours of same items).
The next activity asks you to investigate labelling used in your workplace to identify goods.

How is stock maintained?
In Section Two you looked at the processes of storing stock including safety in handling and storage. In this section you will look at checks to be made on stock to ensure that stock is readily available and able to be used from the storage area.
An ideal stock storage system allows for stock to be:
• always easily located
• moved around as little as possible (not ‘double-‐handled’)
• used before reaching use by date
• counted easily
• secure
• safely stored.
Stock does not move by itself. So, any problems with stock storage are caused by human intervention. Often this will be someone ‘just grabbing something quickly because it’s needed urgently!’ Therein lies the problem – human error!
One of your tasks as a learner in the stock control area may be to ‘go and tidy up the shelves’. This can be a tedious job but does get you familiar with stock identification and let’s you learn more about how the system works (or doesn’t work).
At other times you will be asked to join in a stocktake that may involve a number of your fellow team members. The purpose of a stocktake is to check quantities of stock and the quality of that stock. An annual stocktake is done for Taxation purposes but smaller stocktakes will be undertaken during the year, often on a section of the storage area.
The next activity focuses on stocktaking procedures in your workplace.

Activity 10: Stock taking
Ask to be involved in a stocktake or when stock is rotated. During the process, find answers to the following questions:
Question Your response
How often is a stocktake undertaken of all stock? Are other smaller stocktakes made? When and why?
How often is stock checked for use by date and rotated to ensure older stock is used first? If NEVER, how is stock loss avoided from being out of date?
How often is stock checked for fitness for use and disposed of or repaired, etc? If NEVER, how is stock loss avoided from being unfit for use?
What is required when damaged/unfit for use/out of date stock is identified?
Are there any special requirements for handling stock when checking stored stock?
