Dealing with Negative Stock

If the quantity Supplied on the Enter Invoice Line screen has resulted in a negative stock on hand quantity of an item, and either your company configuration or your user security is set to prevent stock from going negative, Micronet displays the List of Items Causing Negative Stock screen.

Reference

For more information about these settings, see:

the Prevent Stock going negative field on the Invoicing Configuration screen – see "Edit - Program - Invoicing"), and
the Allow Negative Stock field on the User File Update screen - Main tab – see "Maintenance - Edit UserIDs - 1. Main".

To continue processing the invoice:

Complete the steps in the process "Invoice Creation - File - Print Invoice".
When the List of Items Causing Negative Stock screen is displayed, you can either:

select Cancel and change the quantity supplied of the item so it does not go into negative stock

select Accept and ask a user with the appropriate security to authorise the transaction by entering their login details.

Continue with the remaining steps under "Invoice Creation - File - Print Invoice".
