What are Products
Also known as SKU’s these are the top level information which is used when we receipt each batch of stock into the warehouse. The product contains the default information which speeds up the receipt process for items being receipted.
What is the structure
Every customer has many PRODUCT records
Each product has many STOCK records (each represents a receipt into the warehouse)
Each stock record is located in one or many LOCATIONS within the warehouse

We generally derive charges for products from a logical entry after the import takes place, so we calculate the charges based on the charges for the customer and the logic to apply those to the products.

Product ChargingWe generally derive the product charging from your product data, we build a script to apply the charging per each product from the customers default charging structure, therefore it is essential that the charging structure can be linked to the product by means of one of the product fields. e.g. Product Type WINE is always the charge groups "general" |
