A purchase order becomes a GRN. Stock sits in bins that production issues from and finance values. The heat number stays on the record.

## 

The store sheet was last updated on Friday. Production asks for bars, and someone walks to the rack to count. The heat number for the lot is in a notebook nobody can find.

Questions

## 

### Does quality see the same GRN as stores?

Yes. The GRN is the record stores and quality both read. A GRN opens an inspection, and items that fail stay out of stock.

### How does material reach a job?

Production issues from the bins, against the bill of material for that job.

### Is stock valued separately by accounts?

No. Finance values the same stock that sits in the bins. There is not a second stock figure.

### We have more than one plant. Does that work?

Yes. Run more than one plant in one system, and move stock between plants with the transfer recorded.
