How to enter in an invoice for sold consignment (appro) stock
When receiving an invoice for consignment items that you have sold, or already made into stock items, the process is:
Go to 'Stock Menu' > 'Enter Stock from Invoice' > 'New Invoice'. Fill in the details of the invoice and then click save. At this point that is all you need to do for the invoice. As the items are already in Swim, you do not have to enter them in again. So ensure at this point that you DO NOT enter the stock items again.
Next, if you have sold the stock, and would like the sold item to reflect the new invoice number rather than the consignment note number, you can find and edit the stock item. Then click on 'components' and select 'edit' next to the supplier line. Then delete the consignment number and enter in the invoice number. This step is completely optional.
If you have not sold the items and wish to make the item into a purchased stock item, go to stock menu, consignment promotion search. Search for the item and tick 'make into stock item'. Then click 'save page'. You can also print a tag out for the item with the new stock number beginning with 'i' for invoiced.
