About
A stock movement is a record of a product moving into or out of a site. Each one records when it happened, why, and what it cost.
Which products have stock movements
Whether a product gets its own stock movements depends on its stock type:
Supplied, Preparation and Made
Stock movements are recorded against the product itself.
Recipe
Stock movements are recorded against the recipe's raw ingredients instead.
Other
Not an inventory product, so no stock movements are created.
Movement times
A stock movement is created when the action happens, but the time recorded against it can be different.
Example
A supplier order's stock movements are created when the order is marked Delivered. If the Delivered Date was 3 hours earlier, the movements are recorded at the Delivered Date, not the time it was marked.
What creates a movement?
See the Types & Costs tab for every kind of stock movement and how it's costed.
