Inventory#
The Inventory concept is used to help check and correct the amount of stock stored in a Location.
Each inventory has a set of lines, one for each Product that is in, or is should be in, the location. Each line has an expected quantity and an actual quantity. The former is used to show how much stock is expected to be in the location and the latter is used to record how much stock was actually found there.
A option on the inventory specifies what to do with lines whose actual quantity is left empty.
When the Inventory is confirmed the stock in the location is updated by creating a set of Stock Moves. These moves correct the stock in the location. They do this by transferring stock to and from the lost and found location associated with location being checked.
Warning
Do not use inventories when Setting initial stock levels.
