The Suppliers screen holds who you buy from and is where goods come in. Receiving is one step: fill the lines, press Confirm Receipt, and stock, cost and expiry are updated together.
Why it matters
Receiving is the moment your numbers become true or false. Capturing cost and expiry while the boxes are still in front of you is what makes margins, valuation and expiry alerts work later.
Suppliers
- Add Supplier with name, contact name, phone, email, address and notes.
- Products supplied: tick the products this supplier brings. Purchase orders use this list to suggest reorders.
- Edit or delete a supplier. One with shipments or purchase orders on record cannot be deleted, so history stays intact.
Receive a shipment
- Press Receive Shipment and pick the Supplier.
- Add a line per product: scan the barcode or search by name or SKU, then enter Quantity, Cost price and Expiry date.
- Product not in the catalog yet? The form offers New product right there — name, sale price and barcode — and adds it to the line.
- Check the subtotal and total, then press Confirm Receipt.
