Create a new inventory item

Completed

Before you buy and sell items, make sure that you set up information and policies that the program uses in item transactions. This item-specific information is entered and maintained in one central place: the item card.

When you create document lines for a specific item, the relevant information from the item card is entered in most of the fields on the lines, and the line amount is calculated according to the quantity that you enter.

To open an item card, follow these steps:

  1. Select the Search for Page icon in the upper-right corner of the page, enter items, and then select the related link.

  2. Select New to open a new item card or select the No. field to open the item card for an existing item.
