Example - Supply of Stocked Items

As well as the cabling installation, the example Project requires the supply of a stereo system, speakers and cabling. These were listed in the Project Budget record and are Stocked Items. They should be issued to the Customer from a Sales Order so that stock levels can be adjusted correctly. The Order can be created from the Project Budget record by selecting 'Create Sales Order' from the Operations menu. Depending on how the Project Item Handling setting has been configured, all the Stocked Items in the Project Budget record are transferred to the Sales Order. Plain and Service Items are not transferred:

The Project Code appears in the Project field on the 'Del Terms' card of the Sales Order. This means that Deliveries can be issued in the normal way (using the 'Delivery' function on the Operations menu of the Order screen), but Invoices cannot be produced from the Order screen. Instead, they are raised from the Job Costing module as described here. The Items delivered are shown below:

When the Delivery is approved and saved, separate records are created in the Project Transaction register for each row of the Delivery. The Price will be taken from the Sales Order, while the Cost will be the average FIFO value from the Delivery, multiplied by the Quantity.
