Inventory Management - Data Entry

Stocktake Entry

The Stocktake Entry screen allows control of the stock and automatic entry of the opposing adjustments within the General Ledger. The General Ledger account is the Debit or Credit side to be adjusted against the Inventory Asset Account.

Items to Consider

If the Stocktake entry involves negative stock, there is no cost change. When Stocktake adjustments are done, they must be posted immediately. These entries are based on a current snapshot of the current stock levels at the time of entry.

Hiring Inventory Items

Any Inventory stock that has its Type set as Hire is treated differently to all other stock. It is not displayed in any Sales or Purchase lists so that the user is unable to directly Purchase Hire items directly into Stock. This also means that accidental Selling or Purchasing of these items is also eliminated.

Inventory Management - Data Entry

Transfer Entry

This Function allows the transfer of stock between two product codes, for example, a special stocktake adjustment. When a large number of stock transfers are to be entered From and To the same locations it both simplifies and makes the data entry much quicker for the user.

Location ID

You only have to enter in the Location ID in the entry fields. SapphireOne will enter the Location Names as set up in the system.

Creating New Inventory IDs

If we enter in the exact ID that we want for location A the system will ask if it is to create this new ID. If the user answers Yes, the system will clone the ID and place the quantity of stock into it.

Build Entry

Master Build Lines

The inventory items selected to make up the Master Build item are listed under Item Lines area. If these items are sold consistently, SapphireOne will only require the quantity to be built to be entered. A limiting factor in the quantity will be the stock levels available at the time of entering this Build Entry.

SapphireOne also allows you to create a one-off inventory item provided that the line items already exist within SapphireOne.

Inventory Management - Data Entry

Build Order Entry

This brings up the Standard Posting Screen for the selection of transactions entered through the Inventory Menu awaiting posting.

If there is a WF error, transactions will not be permitted to post. More details can be found in SapphireOne manual guide.
