Proper way to handle inventory needing processing
Hello,
Hoping for some insight on how to "properly" handle our inventory and processing.
We buy our product in bulk, and apply a coating to it once it arrives. This is done at an outside vendor. We don't apply coating to about 5% of the product, because some customers like it uncoated.
Currently we:
1) Buy an Inventory Item "ABC" from the manufacturer, and receive it to stock in our "Main Warehouse" location.
2) We then create a purchase order to our coating vendor for the qty that we want coated.
3) We create a transfer order to a location called "Outside Processing", and physically send the product to the vendor.
