Manufactured Inventory Entry

This function at Accounting / Inventory / Manufacture Inventory creates some manufactured product based on the formula defined at the product level. The formula is established for a set quantity. The raw materials are relieved and the inventory for the finished item is increased.

• Reference # – The program can automatically assign a reference number if the preference is set at Setup / Preferences under Counters. If it is not set to automatically number, enter a control number here – for example a hand ticket number. A reference number must be in this area for the transaction to be saved.
• Date – Enter the date the product is blended.
• Product – Double-click to select the product which represents the finished good.
• Lot Number – If a lot number is to be associated with the finished good, enter it here. This is an optional entry.
• Quantity Produced – Enter the amount blended in Inventory Units.
• Comments – This is an optional place for notes.
• Containers – This allows refillable containers to be selected for the manufactured inventory if necessary.
• Reorder – The raw materials listed may be ordered differently in the grid. On each line item, set the priority in the Reorder column of the grid, and then choose Reorder. This changes the order the products show in the grid.
• Product Grid – This displays the name of each raw ingredient, the quantity used based on the Quantity Produced amount and the units. Lot numbers may be selected from the available lots for each raw ingredient. Moving to the right displays the Unit Cost, Extended Cost per raw material, and the Reorder number.
