Removing Items if a mistake has been made

To remove an item entered, find and open the invoice  and select the enter stock tab. From here, you can remove the items by clicking on 'Remove All' on the right hand side of the item.

Note: This will remove all items that are currently in the system, so if you only want to remove the items that were entered on this invoice, make sure that 'View by Stock Items' is checked. Then click 'Remove' next to each item you wish to remove. You can only remove items this way if the item has not been sold yet or transferred to another store.

If the item was entered through Assemble stock, you will need to change the items location to "inactive". This will not completely remove the item, however, it will no longer be classed as part of your stock holding.
