In the “Units” field, enter the number of units contained in the total package you received or delivered.
Example: You received 2 packages (boxes) of evaporated milk, each containing 20 units (cans), with each unit being 500ml.
The final Net Quantity is: 500ml × 20 units × 2 packages = 20,000ml (20 liters).In the “Packages” field, enter how many packages you received or delivered.
Example: You received 2 boxes of evaporated milk, with 20 units in each box- that’s 2 packages or 40 units.
In summary, the Inventory is a tool that allows you to manage your products and better organize your supplier orders, ensuring the smooth operation of your business.
