Inventory and purchasing

Items and stock

Each item has its SKU, cost and reorder rule. Its stock is the sum of its moves: receipts, sales, returns, counts and adjustments, each kept with its reason.

One count

A register product or a store variant with an item’s SKU sells that item’s stock, so a sale anywhere lowers the same count. A base that sold before adding Inventory counts its products in, in one go.

Purchasing

1. 1Reorder drafts a purchase order per supplier for the items at their minimum.
2. 2Place the order with the supplier.
3. 3Receive it line by line as it arrives: each receipt adds to the stock, at its cost.

Alerts

You are told when an item falls to its reorder point, from any sale or count, and a workflow can bill received orders in Accounting.
