Inventory Overview

The Inventory module is a catalog of line items or billing units used during purchase order or invoice entry. A line item or billing unit consists of the item number, its description, three alternate unit names and alternate pricing levels. Each customer is assigned a pricing level. As a line item is specified, the purchase order or invoice entry program will search the Inventory module to see if that item exists. If the item is found, its description, unit name and price will be transferred onto the invoice according to the pricing level assigned to that customer.

Each item used for look-up during purchase order or invoice entry has an item number. The same number is used for entry in both modules. Sales and purchase information for an item number are maintained together to allow easy integration of the inventory module. Purchase order and invoice information may be kept for an unlimited number of vendors.

Inventory

Purchase Order line items may be automatically recalled from the Inventory module. This is the same Inventory module that is used in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. Maintenance of the Inventory module may be done through the Inventory Main Menu.
