Branch stock flags determine whether a product is a known stock item that should always be restocked or a known non-stock item that should not be restocked. You can set branch stock flags manually or by the system. The system determines if a product is a stock or nonstock item, based on the number of hits the product receives. See Defining Hits Parameters for a Buy Line for more information on hits.
You can set a default nonstock product at the buy line level. When you create a new product in Product Maintenance and the product needs to be added to the buy line, you can decide which product template to use when assigning a product.
To set the default nonstock product for a buy line:
From the Purchase > Maintenance menu, select Buy Line Maintenance to display the Buy Line Maintenance window.
In the Buy Line ID field, enter the buy line to which you want to set the default product template and press Enter.
From the Information > Additional Data menu, select Default Nonstock Template to display the Default Nonstock Template entry window.
Enter the product to use for the template.
