Inventory Maintenance
Each inventory item has the potential to be stored in multiple locations.
Once locations are set up the information is always requested whenever
the items are processed. When items are sold or recieved it is necessary
to enter this information in addition to the standard information. The
date added and other information are stored automatically.
Detailed Information
The detailed information about the stock in any location is available
by selecting the line and pressing . A box will be displayed and may be
edited there. It is not difficult to add additional information to this
screen if desired.

Transactions
When processing items in any way that will alter the onhand quantity,
the information will be requested. When invoicing, inventory adjustment
issues, or shipping sales orders the location information is selected
from a list of the available on hand stock. When receiving purchase orders
of inventory adjustment receipts, the information is entered. When an
item is moved, it is necessary to record the move in the inventory file.
It does not affect the accounting, but the location of the item must be
changed. To change the location of the item just bring it up and change
the quantity. A new record will automatically be added for the difference
and a screen will pop up to the right to enter the new information. Items
can be split up as many times as desired. Once the items are received
and the information is entered it is possible to view the information.
Reports
A new report has been added to show the inventory on hand by location.
When printing the on hand report the question will be asked if the location
specific report should be used. Other reports have not been altered.
