if they do we will work with you to resolve things as
quickly as possible through the support processes we

we hope this guide gives you confidence that we are
changing, with Postmasters at the heart of everything
we do.

our customers and branches.

Stock Remittance
Receipt of a Stock Remittance
If your Stock Remittance is delivered by Cash in Transit,
please check that you have received the correct number
of pouches, before selecting:
- Back Office
— Rems and Transfers
- Delivery
Then please scan, in turn, the delivery pouch barcode
on each pouch listed on the Delivery Advice Note. Once
complete, Horizon will produce two copies of a pouch
delivery receipt, one of which should be handed to the
Cash in Transit representative.
Although you scan a Stock Remittance pouch onto
Horizon, unlike cash it does not automatically add the
contents onto Horizon. You'll need to do this manually by
selecting:
- Back Office
- Rems and Transfers
- In from ADC
- Enter relevant quantities received from the Stock
Remittance Advice Note

Please enter quantity details from this side
onto Horizon
All Stock Remittances should be booked in on Horizon
within 24 hours of receipt. Please open and check
all pouches, check that the contents match the Stock
Remittance Advice Note and manually enter the
quantities received onto Horizon.
Please take care to book in the stock received on the
correct line on Horizon and enter the correct volume
received, as otherwise it may cause a discrepancy in
your accounts, and to Rem in the whole of your Stock
Remittance delivery, not just parts of it.
The Stock Remittance Advice Note is double-sided, with
one side showing the Pick List used by the National
Stock Centre and the other the Despatch Note for your
use in branch. Please use the Despatch Note side when
checking and booking in your stock, as the units of
measure differ.
Please attach the Delivery Advice Note to the
Remittance In slip and retain it, along with the pouch
delivery receipt, in your branch for two years.

to your branch will be based on your previous branch
sales. You can order additional stock on Horizon or
Branch Hub.
Your philatelic standard distribution is based on your
previous customer demand.

Discrepancies in your stock when you balance
{including new process from March 2021)
Physical shortage or surplus in stock at balance
There are two elements involved in checking your stock
when you balance:
1. Definitive stamps (e.g. 1p/5p etc.) — please complete
a declaration of all definitive stamps you have on hand.
The total of this is shown on the Balance Snapshot as
‘Postage Stamp’
2. Non-value indicator stamps (e.g. 1st/2nd Class,
Special Stamps, philatelic items etc.) — please check
the Balance Snapshot or Stock on Hand report
against the number you have on hand and adjust any
differences, via a Stock Adjustment, using Reason Code
29 (Surplus) or 39 (Shortage) as appropriate
As of March 2021, we introduced a new process for dealing
with a discrepancy in your stock items, including non-value
indicator stamps, asking you to record the discrepancy
as a Stock Adjustment. The new process means any
discrepancy you find in your stock will be visible both to you
and to us, so we can help you resolve any stock issues more
easily.
Please see Section 8, ‘Use of Stock Adjust’ for further
details.
In this scenario, you should no longer carry out sell/
reverse transactions to correct the amounts.
Declaring your Definitive stamps
When completing your stock unit balance, please input on
Horizon the quantities of each denomination of stamp you
have in your stock (excluding the volume stock listed on the
Stock on Hand Report, e.g. 1st Class, 2nd Class, Special
Stamps, philatelic items etc.) as below:

Please select the stamp line in the list for the stamp value

selected Enter:
«The system will compare the declared stamps total with
the system held total and will alert you if a discrepancy
is found. You can then either confirm the discrepancy
or check your declaration again — there is no limit to the
number of times you can check your declaration
When your declaration agrees with the system held total or
you have confirmed a discrepancy, please select Print the
Stamp Declaration report and keep it with your Stock Unit
Balance report for two years.
When you select ‘Balance Report’, any discrepancy in your
stamp declaration will be visible. Please then select the
appropriate Reason Code.
Please see Section 8, ‘Use of Stock Adjust’ for further
details.
Discrepancies in your stock when
you balance
All other stock items (including
non-value indicator stamps)
The Horizon system is designed to maintain a constant
state of balance, and any alterations to stock levels result
in a corresponding cash increase or decrease. Therefore,
when balancing, please always correct your stock before
you declare your cash.
Please use the Balance Snapshot or Stock on Hand report
to check that your actual stock on hand agrees with the
figures held on Horizon.
If the actual stock you have on hand is different from the
figures shown on Horizon:
« Please Stock Adjust any such stock differences found
when you balance your account. This will ensure any
discrepancy you find in your stock is visible both to you
and to Post Office
Please see Section 8, ‘Use of Stock Adjust’ for further
details.
Where possible, it is recommended that balancing is
carried out weekly, to reduce discrepancies and enable
more accurate balancing.

We have revised the Reason Codes to make them
clearer and more appropriately worded:

Incidents that may cause
discrepancies in your stock
Stock physically lost
If you know that you have physically lost a particular
lease report it to the Branch Support
soon as possible, obtain a
reference number and follow the next steps given.
If you have a discrepancy in your stock that you don’t
know the reason for, please see the relevant section
in this guide, carrying out a Stock Adjust transaction if
needed to correct the difference between the system
held figure and what you actually have on hand.
Please take care to treat stock in the same careful way
that you treat cash. As an example, at the time this
guide was written, a sheet of 1st Class stamps is worth
£42.50, so it should be kept as secure as cash would be
in your drawer. If it was lost, then it would become a loss
to the branch, just as if you lose a £20 note.
Stock physically found
If you physically find stock that you previously thought
was lost, please see the relevant section in this guide
(Section 7), carrying out a Stock Adjust transaction if
needed to correct the difference between the system
held figure and what you actually have on hand.
Stock declarations
When completing the weekly Balance Period (BP)
balance and monthly Trading Period (TP) balance,
please don’t use the Declare Stock button (Weekly/
Monthly Accounting — button 23) on Horizon.
The stock in your branch is accounted for by following
the processes described in this guide, carrying out a
Stock Adjust transaction if needed to correct a difference
between the system held figure and what you actually
have on hand.
Using the Declare Stock button on Horizon will
overwrite the stock on hand figures, which could cause
discrepancies as it will result in the need to manually
declare all value stock in the branch.
If you do find the Declare Stock button has been
