Inventory
In the Inventory module, purchased or manufactured products are converted into Stock (with Serial or Part number) and can be kept, transferred, sold etc. Stocks are organized in Warehouses.
Stock type
There are currently 4 Stock types for products in Lapis – Batch stock, Single Stock, Compound stock, Packaged stock
Batch stock allows you to create a group of multiple units of an item, and assign them a unique value/number/tag called Batch No.
Single Stock is a unique stock item, it has a unique Serial No. and each unit can be traced.
Compound stock is a stock that consists of a list of possible subproducts, which are single stock type.
Stocks are managed within the Inventory, and used in Sales and Purchases processes. Each stock corresponds to a product, defined in the system.
