# Recent Stock Changes

We think it is a very helpful feature to be able to view your stock changes. This can give you insights top when your customers are buying what, enabling you to plan when you need to source more stock for your store.

### How do I view recent stock changes?

To view all changes to your stock, whether they were changed automatically due to a sale or you or a member of your team changed the stock manually:

1. Login to your Freewebstore Control Panel.
2. Go to **Manage > Products > Stock.**
3. At the top of your screen, you will see 2 buttons, **Stock Requests** (which shows you customers that have requested to be notified when new stock is in for certain products) and **Stock Changes**, click **Stock Changes.**
4. You will then be faced with a new window that provides the **name** of the product, the **change** in stock (whether it is a negative change or a positive change), the **date** when the stock was changed and the **reason** for the stock change (who the stock was updated by or by sale).
