You can receive items using a product's UPC for a Stock Number instead of creating your own. To add a new item to your inventory, receiving file or purchase order, using a UPC, just scan the item's bar code or type in the UPC (the numbers found below the bar code). Then fill in the rest of the information required for the item (e.g., description, etc.). If you are adding an item to your receiving file or purchase order that is already in your inventory, you can just place the cursor in the Stock Number field and scan the item's bar code. RetailEdge will fill in the rest of the information for you. Note: RetailEdge will automatically put a plus in front of the UPC Code. This is only to differentiate it from an item number and can be ignored.
