More Information
Items classed as Non-Moving retain stock history to allow you to track the sales which have taken place but their stock level remains unchanged.
Their sale will generate a sale value in your accounting system but there will be no cost of sale posting for non-moving items.
You should create the stock code as normal following the instructions in the Creating a Stock Item article. The additional instructions below explain how to specify an item as Non-Moving.
- Click on the [Invoicing] tab.
- Set the "Update quantity?" flag to 'No'.
Ensure that when posting purchase invoices for non-moving items, where relevant, you post the value direct to a suitable Purchase Centre that links to a Profit & Loss Centre. |
