C. This is the non-inventory part indicator
If you indicate that the part is a non-Inventory part, then you are basically telling Blackpurl that you do not want to keep track of quantities and/or average costs etc
If you add the non-inventory part to a Customer Order, it will automatically tell you it is in stock as it does not go through any Special Order VO/VR/VI process nor will you be able to order a non-inventory part
D. Quantity in Stock - when you first create a new part, you can enter in the Stock on Hand in this section
**For our Dealerships that have Accounting Integration, please be aware that if you do enter a quantity as Stock on Hand at this point, it will create a stock adjustment journal over to our accounting package based on the quantity and the cost entered
Debit - relevant Inventory General Ledger
Debit - relevant Inventory General Ledger
Credit - the default Stock Adjustment General Ledger
If you don't enter in a Quantity at this point, you will need to do a Part Stock Adjustment at a later date if you need Stock on Hand
