In order to start using the Warehousing Management System (WMS) feature in CWO, some set up is required.
Step 1- Set up a counterparty. A counterparty is any business that you would be purchasing inventory from.
Step 2- Create a warehouse. A warehouse is the location that that inventory will be stored. You can have one or several warehouses in your account.
Step 3- Add inventory. Ensure that you inventory you would like to track has been created in your account. Any products that you have added to your account under seeds, CP products, or fertilizers will be listed in the inventory.
**Note: You may want to update the units that this product uses. Inventory items can have both a base unit, as well as an additional unit. The base unit is the unit that the inventory item is consumed in. The additional unit is another unit the inventory item might be measured in. Typically the additional unit is the unit that the inventory item is purchased in. For example, Axial might have a base unit of liters and an additional unit of an 80L drum.
Step 3a- Add additional units for the inventory items to be measured in of needed.
Step 4- Create a goods receipt. This is where you will enter your invoice from the retail.
Step 5- Create a goods issue. This can be done simply by creating an agro operation where you Write off the inventory from a warehouse you have created. You can also issue inventory to an agro operation.
Once this set up is complete, you will start to use inventory created and therefore assign costs of the inventory to the field.
Additional features in WMS
Vendor Invoices: documents used to record expenses for services and resources that are consumed without being received at the warehouse (e.g. machinery rental, delivery, etc.).
Price Lists: this tool will help you to add predicted prices for inventory in in reports. The actual price is attached to the inventory of the item when creating a good receipt.
