Add inventory and log an arrival

Use these when there is no live purchase order and no stock order to receive against — you are writing down what is already here, or a box turned up without a shipment.

The type you pick still has to match What lives in the warehouse. Adding house finished goods does not consume blanks.

Add inventory (already on the shelf)

Inventory → Stock → Add inventory

What are you adding?

Choice on the screen	Use when
House blanks	Raw goods already on the shelf, or found during a count
House finished goods	Pre-printed retail or bought finished goods already here. Does not consume blanks
Stock you already hold for a seller	Then pick the seller and their products

Confirm, then put away so the slot is known.

Log an arrival (unannounced box)

3PL → Receiving → Log an arrival

1. Whose is it? Ours or A seller's.
2. If a seller's, pick the seller.
3. Carrier, cartons, tracking (optional).
4. Manifest: packing slip (you will enter declared while counting) or No packing slip (blind count).
5. Start receiving, count, confirm, put away.

House boxes cannot raise a variance. A seller blind count cannot raise one later either.
