A purchase order becomes a GRN. Stock sits in bins that production issues from and finance values. The heat number stays on the record.
Multi-plant stock
Run more than one plant in one system, and move stock between plants with the transfer recorded.
Stores and quality read the same GRN. Finance values the same stock.
