I am new to Manager.io. I have a quick question regarding inventory and purchase invoice.
Currently, I have only entered purchase invoice and no entry is seen in inventory.
Can someone help me?
As a new user it’s recommended to start by reading the Guides and search the forum for similar topics. You can also create a sample business to see how things work in Manager.
Sale prices are not “added to inventory,” whatever you mean by that. A purchase invoice adds the purchase cost to Inventory on hand. Manager will not use the sale price until you sell an item, and then only to prefill the sales invoice or receipt. Behavior also differs depending on whether you are using goods receipts. Read the 3-part Guide on inventory management, beginning here: https://www.manager.io/guides/11111.
What do you mean by this? Where are you looking, and what did you expect to see? How did you define the inventory item?
Thank you for the response.
What I am trying to do:
I have created a purchase invoice with few items.
e.g. item: Tab. Paracetamol Qty: 30, Price 1, Total 30, MRP (sale price) - custom field created - 30
What I expected:
I was expecting to see the 30 Paracetamols with respective details automatically reflected in the inventory. Looking in “Inventory Items” —> showing 0 items
Rather than writing what’s on the screen, please show a copy of the screen using a tool eg Snipping Tool in Windows available on your PC, iMac or whatever you are using
It is not clear what entries you made in your inventory item from the description you gave above
This is the purchase invoice I added:
I am expecting the items from the invoice should be reflected in the inventory. However, here is what inventory items window shows (no item in the inventory):
Had you read the guides, you would have seen that you must create the Inventory Items before you enter the Purchase Invoice
Also, in future when copy the screen image, it is better to copy the Edit screen and not the View screen as pertinent information is shown on the Edit screen but not on the View Screen
Oh… I did not know that. As the software I used earlier used to create inventory items automatically from the purchase invoice… Thank you… I will keep that in mind
And I cannot stress enough: read the Guides. Had you read the series I linked to, all your questions would have been answered.
Really sorry for this… Will keep in mind
