New articles
There are two ways to insert new items in the inventory:
1. Using the "New" button on the right side of the list;
2. Using the "Document management function to enter delivery
receipts or immediate invoices..
NOTE Never use any separator when entering quantities or numbers
with 3 or 4 digits. The separators (.) period and (,) comma may only
be used to define (euro)cents. For example, if the number 10000,30 is
inserted, it will be displayed as 10.000,30 or 10,000.00 (depending on the
operating system preferences). The period key in the numeric keyboard
will also be considered as a decimal separator for eurocents.

The first type of creation is advisable during the
initial configuration of the program, that requires loading the majority
of items in the inventory. The second option is used when updating the
quantities in the warehouse, as usually an update is the result of a
shipment which has to be accompanied by a delivery receipt. Only the
first option will be explained here; the second option is explained in the
section on delivery receipts. To create a new article, click on the
button labeled "New" in the "Warehouse" window.
NOTE Before inserting a new item, at least one supplier and one goods
category must exist.
The following are mandatory fields that have to be filled in the item
sheet to be able to save the article in the inventory:
- Description
- Supplier
- Supplier code (ID)
- Goods category
- VAT rate
Everything else is optional.
The item sheet has additional information accessible through it:
- Article information(always shown by default)
- Photos/Descriptions

The following screen shows the price history of an item, as defined
through manual changes or thorugh invoices.

When all the information has been entered, it will be possible to
save the article information by clicking on the "Save" button. The
main warehouse window will then be shown, and the list will be updated to
include th newly created article. it is possible to select an existing
item by clicking on it; the selected item will be highlighted in
green.
The "Options" menu has the following menu items:
- Print the information on an article
- Transfer an amount to a warehouse (this option is useful if the
multiple warehouse option is enabled).
