Prepare To Add Inventory Items
You take the following steps to set up item records in Inventory Control:
-
Add the item information from your existing inventory system to Inventory Control, selecting the options you want to use.
-
(Optional) Add minimum and maximum desired stock quantities for items so you can print reports to identify understocked and overstocked items in your inventory.
Purchase Orders uses reorder information to automatically generate purchase orders for understocked items.
-
(Optional) If you have already set up your inventory locations, assign items to the locations where you want to stock them (or you can do this later).
Note: If you turned on the Allow Items At All Locations option in the Options form, the program assigns all items to all locations.
-
(Optional) If you repackage or assemble items before selling them as merchandise, add bills of material to define master items that you make from component items.
