Buy and receive house blanks

Stock type: Blanks. You own them. You bought them to decorate. They leave by batch consume, not pick.

If you are buying something you will sell as-is, that is finished goods — Bring in house finished goods.

Where

Inventory → Purchase orders to buy and receive. Inventory → Tasks to put away. Inventory → Stock → Blanks to see on-hand.

Buy

1. Open Inventory → Purchase orders.
2. Create a purchase order and add the blank products.
3. Send it as you usually do.

A line that is already sellable and not for decorating shows a Finished good chip — that line is not a blank. Keep blanks and finished goods on the same PO if the supplier ships them together; receiving still splits what happens after putaway.

Receive

1. Open the purchase order when the box lands, or go to 3PL → Receiving, filter House, and open the inbound.
2. Count what is in the box. Your count is what enters the building.
3. Confirm receive. That credits on-hand and opens a Putaway task.

Put away

1. Open Inventory → Tasks.
2. Open the putaway.
3. Place units in a house slot (no seller on that slot).
4. Complete the task.

After that, a print batch can consume the blank. It will not be picked for a customer order as a finished good.

If the count is already on the books but not on a slot

Put blanks on locations — a one-time migrate, not a receive.
