I'm not sure whether it is a correct term in Dutch, but if it is, it is spelled "stockopname". A noun used adjectively unchanged is always added as a single word in Dutch.

Thanks a lot for your answer. This has proven my 'suspicion' that 'stockopname' is truly an indigenous Dutch used solely in Indonesia. What this 'stockopname' denotes is 'voorraadbewaking' or 'stock control'. Other indigenous and unique Dutch in Indonesia is 'zuurzak' which is called 'soursop' in English, a fruit with a sour savory taste (have you tasted it?). Once again, heel erg bedankt.

Yes, I think it is only used in Indonesia - when you told the word, I thought of something completely different, namely the English "stock photo". Regarding zuurzak: I do not know it, but according to Wikipedia, "zuurzak" is the correct name in 'Dutch Dutch' as well.
