Inventory Transactions

Inventory transactions record every movement of stock in and out of your inventory. Each transaction creates an auditable record of what changed, when, and why.

Viewing Transactions

From the main Inventory grid, right-click a product and select View Transactions to see all transactions for that product type. Transactions also appear in the detail panel of the Product Types editor.
