Purchase Orders

What it's for

Recording what you buy — raw materials for manufacturing, or finished products for resale — with an accurate cost and supplier attached.

How it works

1. Create a PO: Create a Purchase Order against a Supplier, listing what you're ordering, the quantity, and the agreed unit cost.
2. Receive Goods: When the order is marked as received, the corresponding Inventory item's stock increases.
3. Cost Calculation: Its weighted-average cost is recalculated using the real price you just paid.

This is the only way raw-material or retail-product stock enters the system, keeping your cost data incredibly trustworthy.

Pro Tip: This module supports ordering both raw materials (for production) and finished/retail products (for resale) from the exact same flow!
