How can I exclude an item from inventory ?
Thank you for your answers. Andre
You can setup items as non-inventory which means that no quantity on hand is tracked.
If you are referring to physical inventory, you would either have to filter it out (<>itemnumber) or delete it from physical inventory journal.
where exactly do I have to make this setting?
Thank you !
Items have a field called “Type”. Find that field on an item you have not used or create a new item. Three choices: inventory, service or non inventory.
Andre,
Items can be setup with different Types, they are:
Inventory - physical inventory that will be counted
Service - Labor or some Service related item
Non-Inventory - physical inventory that is NOT counted
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Steve
You can use non-inventory type item. Just remember that you will lost the ability to track this item inventory and costing properly.
