Simple Transactions (Issue or Receipt)

These are usually only useful for:

• entering the initial levels,

• recording the issues for internal usage (laboratory tests, samples for marketing, ...).

You can perform a simple transaction on any item (purchased or manufactured) except phantom items.

Inventory transaction page

The Inventory button opens the Inventory by Item window.

In the case of a simple issue, the transaction value field is not shown since the issues are always valued at the item standard cost. The field is also masked for a manufactured item simple receipt.
