Add inventory

You can add items to the Inventory by raising Purchase Orders and placing these items into Inventory using a Purchase Order Receipt. There are, however, situations when this is not necessary or not practical; for example, when you first set up the STRUMIS system and add existing stock to the Inventory, or if you do not use the Purchase Order process in STRUMIS. You can only add goods that are defined in the item catalogue.
