| Consignment (In) Master | DocumentationTable of Contents |
The consignment (in) master is used to bring merchandise into your store on consignment. Under normal circumstances consignment stock is owned by the vendor (consignor) until it is sold at which time it will be purchased by the (consignee). Thus consignment stock does not impact your general ledger until such time that you purchase the items using a vendor invoice which is created using the "Generate Invoice" button on this screen.
