Process Purchase Order
Once you have saved your changes to Stock-Reordering, the purchase order will appear in Purchase orders "Pending" (Purchases→ Purchase Orders→ Pending)
Receiving Stock
When stock arrives, you can edit the purchase order and update the "Received Stock Adjustment" box to apply the stock to the stock control system and keep track of what stock has arrived.
This process is designed so that in circumstances where not all stock for a purchase order arrives at the same time, you can keep updating this until it has all arrived. If, for whatever reason, the full amount of stock is not going to arrive, you can tick the complete box to notify the system that this item is complete even though we have not received all the stock requested.
Units of Measure
Units of measure are already set up in BUZ; these can be edited in (Settings→ Inventory Settings→ Import/Export Units of Measure)
