# End of route

The end-of-route process is an essential step for operations based on route sales and on-board inventory sales.

When performing the end-of-route process, we're assuming that the [inventory allocation](https://help.handy.la/en-us/article/load-inventory-per-user-1ryydcp/?bust=1759169203992) process has already been completed.

However, there are times when the seller has not completely sold all of their merchandise.

At Handy, there are three options for handling these products.

* ❌ Shrinkage: Product that is no longer in a condition to be sold (expired, damaged).
* 🏠 Warehouse: The product will be returned to be assigned at another time or to another seller.
* 🚚 Load: The seller will keep the stock in their truck to continue selling.

This is a visual example of how different products will appear at closure. We will look at each scenario ****(no sales appear in the example).****

1. ****Lay's Potato **C****hip: **The user had 1 in their truck, but for some reason, it was damaged. (Shrinkage)
2. **Dove Body Wash: **The user lost one piece during the day; only 7 are returned to their warehouse (the amount in red is a total loss).
3. ****Clorox Disinfecting Wipes:**** All 9 pieces are returned to your warehouse with no missing items.
4. **DiGiorno Frozen Pizza: **This product remains in the truck to continue selling.
5. ****Chobani Greek Yogurt:**** Same as this product.

Once you have received the product and sent it to the appropriate destination, proceed to close the route.
