Inventory, non-stock, or special items

To order inventory items, you can use any method to specify orders. Information, for example unit of measure or sales class, will default from the item master and item location records.

Note: Price is the amount at which you sell items to a customer. Cost is the amount at which you purchase or manufacture an item. Cost is the amount you incur to sell the item to the customer.

To order non-stock items, you must enter a unit cost. However, unit cost is not required if you are creating a purchase order for the item.

To order special items, you must enter an item identifier, unit cost, unit of measure, price, and a description. However, unit cost is not required if you are creating a purchase order for the item.

For more information on item types, see the Inventory Control User Guide.
