In QuickEasy BOS Professional, inventory items are referred to as Materials. During the production process materials can be purchased, converted to finished goods and sold.
The process of receiving materials is referred to as a Materials Movement (Receive).
When goods are produced, there may be materials left over. It is also possible that a customer returns some goods. In both cases, these materials are returned to inventory using a Materials Movement (Return).
The process of issuing materials from inventory to production is referred to as a Materials Movement (Issue). Transactions can be manually created in this module or they can be created from Sales, Work and Purchase Orders.
