Chapter 8. Managing Inventory

So far in this book, you have learnt how to operate ADempiere effectively during procurement, sales, and have seen some of the accounting configuration parts. In continuing, we need to know how we can manage our inventory.

In your company, your warehouse staff manages the inventory stock, identifies and issues material, moves material among locations, handles scrap material, and so on. In this chapter, we will show you how ADempiere can help you with these activities. We will be discussing the following features:

• Product Attributes

• Internal Use Inventory

• Inventory Movements

• Physical Inventory

By understanding these topics, in the end, your warehouse staff will have sufficient knowledge to manage their inventory. In addition, your accounting staff or accountant will be aware of the accounting impact of these activities (if applicable).
