Goods

Goods are of material nature like for example raw materials, spare parts, semi products, finished products and similar.

Variations

If defined in the Company Settings, goods can have variations.

Stock levels are accounted for either the item itself or for each individual variation. This is controlled by the Stocks checkbox in the ~ITEM~ tab. This flag can not be changed if either the parent item or any of the variations have a stock level in any department. All stocks in all departments need to be cleared out prior to such a change.

The Stocks checkbox is set in the ~ITEM~ tab. The variation tab only shows the Stock status and can not be changed there. Upon a save in the ~ITEM~ tab, Brix will automatically set the Stocks checkbox for all existing variations. If a variation is added at a later date, a simple save in the ~ITEM~ tab will set the Stocks checkbox in all variations.

The Sellable flag enable the item to be added into invoices.
