The purchase editor can add a new purchase item while you prepare an order. Enter Item name, SKU where applicable, Item type, Unit, quantity precision, saved unit rate and a clear description. Choose Non-inventory item, Service or Inventory item according to the supported item identity.
Review the quantity decimal places before saving because the precision is retained in the item's history. The unit and rate help prepare future order lines; they do not by themselves determine the bill's final accounting treatment.
Ledger accounts are chosen during bill review. Saving a purchase item or selecting Inventory item does not alone receive stock or post an acquisition. The stock workflow has separate tracking and posted-movement requirements.
After saving, confirm that the correct item appears on the order and check its actual quantity and rate. A reusable default can still need adjustment for this supplier agreement. If the item-save response is uncertain, resume the retained item request before creating another item with a slightly different name.
