Van load
In Arabic تحميل السيارة
A van load is the stock moved from a warehouse onto a sales van before a route, recorded so that the van’s own stock balance is always known.
In plain words
Once goods leave the warehouse on a van, the van is holding stock. Recording the load as a transfer from the warehouse to the van keeps both balances right: the warehouse goes down, the van goes up, and the total does not change.
At the end of the route the rep unloads what was not sold, again as a transfer back. Between load and unload, the van’s stock should fall only by what was invoiced or given away, which makes the evening count easy to check.
The usual mistake is loading on a paper slip. The goods leave the warehouse, but the van’s stock never rises in the system, so the day’s sales cannot be matched to anything and shortages have nowhere to show.
