Onboarding Session 3.1 - How To Add Stock Status'

Stock Status

Stock Status is a tool to manage the status of a stock record or inventory item.  The status can be set to determine the behaviour of the product in relation to stock management or sales activity.   Stock Status can be set for the Inventory Item or by Stock in Location record. This is particularly useful in a Syswan environment where Head Office can change the status for selected sites using the Stock in Location record without affecting all sites within the group.

Standard Stock Status types have already been loaded into your existing database:

• Normal
• Run Down/Deleted
• Product Recalled

Your H&L Trainer will discuss these options with you.  Add new or edit the existing Status Types if required
