The Stock tab on the footer of an Item will bring the stock selection grid to view for that Item. When setting up an Item, this is the area to assign or apply certain stock to that Item automatically. Stock of any type can be linked to Items via this tab, including tests and checks. This stock grid allows to automatically add multi-part stock to Items. As an example: a sales Item may need to include accessories that are (or can be) sold separately, but need to belong to this Item.

Tests and checks to be performed every time this Item is processed are applied to the Item as stock – the stock type must be Applies. Apply a stock status to these tests and checks, ensuring jobs containing Applies stock cannot be finished until users have completed these tests/checks. |
