Manufacturing Parts: How to move the individual part pieces out of inventory and then put the finished part into inventory

Option 1: Vendor Invoice

  1. Place all the individual items on the invoice as credit items by using the “Receive Credit for Returned Part”
  2. From the “Add Line Item” menu, you will then add the completed product to the invoice to be restocked
  3. Make sure that the cost of the finished product matches the combined credit amount for each of the individual items used so that the net invoice cost is $0 and you’re not adding any actual charges or credits to your vendor
  4. When you post this invoice, your inventory will be adjusted removing the individual items from stock and restocking the completed product

Option 2: Special Vendor

  1. Create a Special or Dummy vendor called “My Transmissions” or appropriately named for whatever type of part (View how to create a new Vendor here)
  2. When you create these types of invoices always assign to this Special vendor
  3. This will allow to you to easily find and track all of you product builds by the special vendor name
