Editing Inventory Setup


== Maintaining Inventory Items in both SME & QuickBooks, or in SME Only ==

<h3>Maintaining Inventory Items in both SME & QuickBooks</h3>
If your inventory items are in both SME & QuickBooks, each of your inventory items in QuickBooks will have the accounts set on them. 
<br>- On your initial sync between SME & QuickBooks, your inventory items will sync to SME with the quantities
<br>- Going forward, to increase the quantity of inventory items in SME, you'll either have to place a PO in SME and receive the items, or manually add stock to the item in SME.
<br>- The QB Item quantities increase when you create a PO in SME, receive the item in SME, and send the bill for the items received over to QB. The PO Bill increases the stock in QB.
<br>- The QB Item quantities decrease when you create an invoice in SME for the item and sync the invoice to QB. The invoice depletes the stock in QB.
<br>- If you manually add stock or adjust stock in SME, you'll have to manually adjust in QuickBooks.

<h3>Maintaining Inventory Items in SME Only</h3>
If you choose to keep your inventory items in SME only, then you can turn on the option to let SME make General Ledger entries in QuickBooks to your COGS and Inventory Asset Accounts. If this setting is setup:
<br>-When an item is purchased in SME, when the item is received a Bill will be sent to QuickBooks and the following GL Entries will be made:

<br>When an item is invoice in SME, the following GL Entries will be made in QuickBooks:

<br>Go to the '''[[GL Entries for SME Inventory]]''' page to read about the options for setting up maintaining inventory in SME only.

== PO Syncing to QuickBooks options ==
There are two options for how SME Purchase Orders sync to QuickBooks. 
<br>1) PO created in SME syncs to QuickBooks as a PO 
<br>2) Items received on the SME PO will be sent to QB on a bill for what you owe the vendor (preferred method). 
<br>Below is a video showing the two options.

== SMP_Item Passthrough Item ==
If an inventory item is in SME and not in QuickBooks, QuickBooks will need to know what accounts to use for it if it is sent over to QuickBooks on an invoice, purchase order, or bill for PO.
<br>[[File:SMP_Item_Example.png]]

<br>To set the account on the SMP_Item passthrough item:
<br>- In QuickBooks, click Lists > Item List
<br>- Open SMP_Item in the item list
<br>- Set the income account. Keep this item as a non-inventory item. Keep it as a non-inventory item.
<br>- Click OK.

<br>To read more about the passthrough items, go to the '''[[SMP Items]]'''. The one used for Inventory is SMP_Item.
