Take control of your stock operations with Sicon Barcoding and Warehousing for Sage 200
If you work in the distribution industry, you’ll know that stock accuracy is the backbone of everything you do.
Poor stock control results in your team shipping the wrong items, spending too much time on stock takes, and even customers losing confidence in your business.
For many distributors using Sage 200 Professional, poor stock control isn’t from a lack of effort, but instead from lack of visibility. That’s where helpful inventory management tools come in, such as the Sicon Barcoding and Warehousing add-on for Sage 200.
In this article, we explore how distributors, like you, can use Sicon Barcoding and Warehousing to improve stock accuracy.

How does Sicon Barcoding and Warehousing help distributors improve stock accuracy?
Accurate receipt and movement of stock
Sicon Barcoding and Warehousing supports handheld receipt and movement of stock, including full stocktakes. This means instead of relying on paper-based processes and manual updates, your warehouse team scans items on a handheld device as they’re received, moved, or counted.
Your Sage 200 system then reflects those changes in real-time, which significantly improves stock accuracy and reduces any discrepancies between your physical stock and system records.
Confident picking, packing and dispatch of orders
For distributors, it goes without saying that accuracy is critical at every stage of the fulfilment process. Sending out the wrong item means processing a return, arranging a replacement, and absorbing the cost – all while your customer is waiting.
Sicon Barcoding and Warehousing helps eliminate these issues by supporting accurate picking, packing and dispatch processes, while updating stock levels in Sage 200 in real-time. Every scan confirms that the correct item is being handled, ensuring inventory records remain reliable and accurate.
This is particularly helpful when dealing with similar-looking items. Handheld barcode scanners remove guesswork and give warehouse teams confidence that the right item has been picked, packed, and dispatched every time.
