When using stock control the natural actions of retailing products through the till will deplete the quantities of stock held on the system. It is therefore necessary to record deliveries of new stock on the system to keep them in line with the actual stock quantities on the shelves and in the stock cupboard.
There are two methods of arriving stock deliveries into the inventory. Firstly, if an order has been created in Stock Orders - Create Order, then the items on order can be marked as arrived automatically updating your stock levels. Alternatively a manual delivery can be created with out the need of creating an order, but this will impact the level of reporting and audits.
