This article will explain the difference between a Part Record - Inventory and a Part Record - Non-Inventory
All part records have the indicator 
and if this indicator is selected then it means that the part record will no longer be a Part Record - Inventory but what does that mean
Part Record - Inventory
- This should be the majority of your Part Records in your Blackpurl
- This type of Part Record will allow you to add cost / can be ordered / can be special ordered from a Customer Order
- On each Part Record it will show you how many in stock / how many available / how many on order / how many committed
- On each Part Record it will show you open Customer Orders and list the Invoices where the part was sold
- On the Customer Order - Profitability it will use the cost and price charged to customer to provide you with the profit
- It will be part of your inventory valuation
Part Record - Non-Inventory
- This is not recommended to be used but it may be necessary for miscellaneous items
- The Dealership cannot add cost / it cannot be ordered / it cannot be special ordered from a Customer Order
- On each Part Record it will NOT show you how many in stock as no quantities are retained
- On each Part Record it will show you open Customer Orders and list the Invoices where the part was sold
- It will show up in your Customer Order - Profitability as 100% profit as there is no cost involved
- It will not be part of your inventory valuation
- When added to a Customer Order, it will always show as available and in stock
- When you add a non-inventory Part Record to a Customer Order, the user does have the ability to override the description so it makes sense to the Customer
