💡 You can use Removals to remove products from stock that were not sold via a sales order.
💡 This typically applies to products that are broken, used internally, etc.
💡 In the Removals overview, you will also see removals from other transactions, such as removals for production orders, filling orders, etc.
⇢ Go to Inventory Management – Removals and click the green plus icon.
General data
Stock location: the location from which the products should be removed.
Date: the date on which the stock is removed.
Note: you can optionally enter a reason for the stock removal.
Excise data
💡 This section must be completed if the removal is under excise suspension and/or accompanied by an eAD document.
ARC: the ARC number as stated on the eAD document, if available.
Stock Removals
Product: the product to be removed.
Type of removal: there are five options to indicate the reason for removal:
Breakage: the stock is no longer usable due to breakage or expiration.
Internal use: the stock is removed due to internal use, for example for sampling.
Production: the stock is removed because it was used in your own production process.
Production loss: the stock is removed because it was lost during your own production process.
Removed: none of the above reasons apply.
⚠️ Douano will only include removals of the type Removed in the excise declaration. All other types will be ignored for excise reporting.
⚠️ It’s important that you can justify to Customs why you’ve marked something as internal use or any other type for which no excise is paid.
Required quantity: the total amount to be removed, expressed in the unit of the product (pieces, liters, kilograms, etc.).
Picked quantity: the quantity picked from the selected stock item.
💡 You can split the required quantity over multiple stock items or lot numbers.
💡 The total picked quantity must always equal the required quantity.
Stock item: the specific stock item to be removed.
💡 When selecting a stock item, the dropdown field will show: the lot/batch number, expiration date, available (non-reserved) quantity, and sublocation of the stock
💡 You can immediately remove multiple stock items without selecting them individually. To do this, simply enter the required quantity and leave the fields for picked quantity and stock item empty.
Please note: Douano will then use auto-picking, which means you no longer have control over which specific stock items are removed. This method is suitable for products where lot or batch number tracking is not important, for example when removing empty packaging.
