IN Line

Use this line type for the sale of inventory items if the Inventory module is in use.

The transaction type used in the line determines the transaction effect on how item balances update. If the Sales Order module is in use, invoices for inventory lines are generated (from the sales order or packing slip). In this case, the inventory on hand balance is reduced when the item is picked and confirmed.

Inventory unit prices default to invoice lines from the Inventory module, though they may be overridden when the invoice line is entered.

Note: If an invoice is generated from the SO module, the Accounts Receivable Module Control option Invoices from sales orders read only determines whether the invoice can be subsequently edited or not.

Options Reference

Each option and field on the form is described below. Mandatory options and fields are highlighted in red.

Line type

Select the Inventory line type.

Tax type

This is taken from the customer, but you can change it. It determines how tax displays and calculated on the line. If Inclusive is selected, Greentree Desktop assumes the price entered into the line is inclusive of tax, and calculate the tax and total values.

If Exclusive is selected, the system assumes the price entered into the line does not include tax, and calculate the tax and total values.

Tax code

You can change this only if the option to Allow tax rate/amount change is selected for the code on the Tax Code Maintenance form. It determines the tax percentage associated with the line so a tax value can be calculated.

Code/Description

Select the inventory item using either the item code or description. The inventory general ledger account of the item is the account that will be credited when the invoice line is saved.

Location

This field is enabled only if locations are in use for inventory items. This represents the location the item is dispatched from. You can change it from the default.

Tran type

Price book

The price book defaults to the line from the Customer, or from one defined on the IN Default Price Book Maintenance form if Advanced Pricing is in use and alternative price books have been defined. If no price book can be found, Greentree Desktop defaults the price book from the Inventory Module Control form. You can change the default.

Unit of measure

The default value is the selected items selling unit of measure. You can change this if necessary. The line price is based on this unit. Greentree Desktop converts line quantities back to the item's stocking unit of measure for updating the inventory balances when the invoice line is saved.

Text type

You can select a text type from one assigned to the inventory item associated with the line. If you select this option, any text of the text type defaults to the line narration. If the text type option Allow editing of text at entry time is selected, you can edit the text that defaults to the narration, otherwise it defaults in read-only format.
