The purchasing and receiving system is the origin of inventory in our system. To begin tracking counts on hand, you need to receive inventory into a warehouse. Bypass supports multiple workflows including creating and receiving purchase orders, receiving items without a purchase order creation, and returns.

Purchase Orders can be created from Inventory > Purchasing & Receiving in Bypass Manager.

  1. Click the Create Purchase Order button.
  2. Fill in details of the order in the fields provided.

  3. To select items to receive from the supplier, start typing the name of a Stock Item into the Add an Itemfield.
  4. From the list of items displayed, click the Stock Item to add to the order.
