Understanding the Stock Movement View in PrestaShop 1.5

The next step in our Advanced Stock Management course, after learning to transfer stock between warehouses, is our article on viewing stock movement. This section is a report of all stock movement done within the warehouses of your PrestaShop 1.5 store. Below is a guide to help you understand the data in the report.

In order to view the stock movement report, the Advanced Stock Management option must be enabled.

How to view the Stock Movement report in PrestaShop 1.5

  1. Log into your PrestaShop 1.5 dashboard.
  2. Using the top menu bar, hover over the Stock tab and click on the Stock Movement option from the menu.

You can filter the list by warehouse by using the Filter Movements By Warehouse dropdown. If you select one warehouse using that method, an option to export the list as a CSV appears in the upper right as a button named Export (CSV). Below is an explanation of the fields and data shown in the report.
