There are two options in which to stock units into your Blackpurl
Option 1 - Preferred Method
The correct way would be to process a Unit Vendor Order / Vendor Receiving to stock units - these links will take you to the relevant articles on this process:
- How to Process a Unit Order (Single Unit Order or Bulk Unit Orders)
- How to process a Unit Receiving (Single Unit Receiving or Bulk Unit Receiving)
Option 2 - Not Recommended
The other option is to use the Add New > Stock Unit functionality
We would recommend that this option is only used at activation phase or shortly thereafter to add units that missed the activation data load
This article will cover Option 2 - Add New > Stock Unit functionality and what the repercussions are if you decide to use this option
Option 2 - Add New > Stock Unit
From the Blackpurl Header click on > then click on
The Add Stock Unit window will pop up along with a Warning window which you will need to acknowledge by reading and then clicking
PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THE REPERCUSSIONS OF USING THIS METHOD OF STOCK UNITS BEFORE CLICKING
- It will NOT integrate a Vendor Tax Invoice over to your accounting for the Dealership to pay on
- It will only send over a journal entry to your accounting package that will modify your Inventory with an offsetting entry to your Stock Adjustment General Ledger
This means that your Accountant / Bookkeeper will need to clear the Stock Adjustment General Ledger of these entries (if required)
Once you have read and clicked over the warning, just start from the top of the Add Stock Unit window and add the details of the Stock Unit.
Once you have finished, don't forget to click on
Result:
- The unit will be added as a stock unit into Blackpurl
- A journal entry will be processed to your accounting package
Debit - Unit Inventory General Ledger
Credit - Stock Adjustment General Ledger
We would suggest that if you are going to add in stocked unit through this method, that you bring it to the attention of your accountant / bookkeeper
This is for them to ensure that you are not duplicating inventory entries in your accounting package and to clear out your Stock Adjustment General Ledger
