Filling out spreadsheets, calculating sales on your own, making lists… these old-fashioned methods for managing inventory aren’t only a pain, but can be expensive. With MoMa 2.0, you can manage all of your inventory with a picklist in just a click. Keep track of your vending machine’s inventory by managing your orders, fills, preparing a picklist for future visit dates, and more.
What is a vending machine inventory picklist?
A picklist is a list that you can generate for each of your vending machines or products with the exact number of products that need to be filled. A picklist allows you to manage your inventory in real-time.
Picklists work best when you also use a product map. Once your machine is filled, you can create a product map which tells you exactly where each product is found in each of your vending machines. By knowing where the item is located on the product map, you can receive accurate information about how much of each product was sold. MoMa 2.0 offers both a picklist and a product map feature.
How do most people manage their inventory?
Post-its? Lists? Excel spreadsheets? There are both non-digital and digital ways to manage inventory.
Before widespread computer use, people would write down lists and keep track of their inventory by hand. This means that they would write down the amount of stock and calculate sales on a daily basis.
Ever since we entered the digital age, inventory management has been made easier with excel spreadsheets. Now, you can keep track of your inventory by writing down the amount of stock and the amount of sales, and having the spreadsheet calculate everything automatically. Sounds a lot easier, right?
But what if you could keep track of sales automatically, with no effort, and even get notified when your stock is running low? This is possible with the MoMa 2.0 app.

What are the benefits of generating an inventory picklist with MoMa 2.0?
Better manage your inventory
By creating a picklist with MoMa 2.0, you can know exactly how many products you have in your machines and what you’re selling out of more quickly. This information will help you increase your revenue by better managing your products so you can decide how to price them, whether or not to offer discounts, and when to refill.
Improve performance
Improve your business’ performance by being constantly connected and keeping track of sales and refills. MoMa 2.0’s database keeps track of all of your data and helps you build a better business plan for the future. You can also prepare a picklist for a future visit date. By using machine usage statistics, this feature estimates what products will need to be added and makes for an even more efficient system.
