Record purchases, receipts, and stock

Use each action when the physical item reaches that stage. These records are internal inventory movements. They do not send an order, charge a payment method, or contact a supplier.

Record a purchase

On a Shopping List row, select Mark items as purchased. You can also select Add Item in Purchased when the item was not first on the Shopping List. Confirm the Inventory item, enter the purchased quantity, and select Submit. FlowerBuddy increases Purchased and Total, and reduces Quantity Needed up to zero. For example, buying 12 requested vases adds 12 to Purchased and clears a 12-piece request.

Record receipt and stock

When the delivery arrives, select Mark items as received on the Purchased row, or use Add Item in Receiving. Enter the quantity received and any lost, stolen, or damaged count, then select Submit. Received pieces move from Purchased to Receiving. A loss reduces Total, so record 11 received and one lost when a 12-piece delivery is short.

After the pieces are put away, select Move items to in stock on the Receiving row. Confirm the quantity and select Submit. The item then leaves Receiving and becomes available for a Pull. Review Log if the resulting quantities are unexpected.
