# Automatic Purchase Records

# Automatic Purchase Records

<h2 id="bkmrk-overview">Purpose and when to use this record</h2>

Review a system-generated replenishment proposal and the purchase orders it created from reorder demand.

## At a glance

- **Identify it by:** the identifying information shown on the screen.

- **Why care:** Warehouse, item, unit, quantity, and cost must describe the same physical movement. A wrong warehouse or unit can make availability and valuation misleading.

## Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on automatic purchase records. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

<h2 id="bkmrk-delete">Delete an Automatic Purchase Record</h2>

Delete this Automatic Purchase Record only when it was entered by mistake and no downstream history depends on it. Use a reversal, void, credit, counter-adjustment, or status correction for a real event that later changed.

Before confirming, check for related **Purchase Orders**. Brisk may refuse deletion when another record depends on this one; resolve the duplicate or use the supported correction workflow instead of breaking the trail.

On the confirmation page, verify the identifying information shown on the screen. After confirmation, return to the Automatic Purchase Records list and make sure only the intended Automatic Purchase Record was removed.

<h2 id="bkmrk-detail">Review Automatic Purchase Record details</h2>

Use the detail page as the shared record of what this Automatic Purchase Record currently means. Verify the identifying information shown on the screen before relying on it for a decision.

Compare the Automatic Purchase Record with its source document or approved setup request before deciding that it needs correction.

Next check: Open the linked purchase orders and confirm vendors, warehouses, quantities, and costs before sending commitments to suppliers.

| Field | Required | What it controls |
|---|---:|---|

## What happens next

Open the linked purchase orders and confirm vendors, warehouses, quantities, and costs before sending commitments to suppliers.

## Common mistakes and troubleshooting

- **The values look right but the result is wrong:** Compare this Automatic Purchase Record with the source document or approved setup decision, then check the downstream screen where it is used.

# Foodservice Option Groups

# Foodservice Option Groups

<h2 id="bkmrk-overview">Purpose and when to use this record</h2>

Define an ordered group of foodservice choices, such as sizes or add-ons, and whether cashiers can use it.

## At a glance

- **Identify it by:** **Group Name**.

- **Why care:** Warehouse, item, unit, quantity, and cost must describe the same physical movement. A wrong warehouse or unit can make availability and valuation misleading.

- **Why care:** Availability and publication flags affect future use without erasing history. Prefer disabling an obsolete setup record when existing transactions still refer to it.

## Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on foodservice option groups. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

<h2 id="bkmrk-create">Create a Foodservice Option Group</h2>

<figure class="brisk-doc-media"><img src="https://help.brisksystems.us/uploads/images/gallery/2026-08/article-modelinventoryfoodserviceoptiongroup-create-foodservice-option-group-create.png" alt="Brisk Foodservice Option Groups create screen displayed with fictional documentation-demo data." loading="lazy" style="max-width:100%;height:auto;"><figcaption>The Foodservice Option Groups create screen in the Brisk documentation demo.</figcaption></figure>

Create a Foodservice Option Group only when the existing choices do not represent the policy or classification you need. Near-duplicate setup values split reporting and make later selection harder.

1. Select the business context first.

2. Enter the required identifying and operational values: **Group Name**.

3. Review **Active** deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record.

4. Save the Foodservice Option Group, then confirm **Group Name** on its detail page before continuing.

After saving: Open **Foodservice Options**, and **Items** and confirm the Foodservice Option Group appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

<h2 id="bkmrk-delete">Delete a Foodservice Option Group</h2>

Delete this Foodservice Option Group only if it is an unused duplicate or setup mistake. Once other records refer to it, preserve that history and make the value inactive when the screen provides that option.

If the record is merely obsolete, use **Active** to remove it from future use while preserving existing references.

Before confirming, check for related **Foodservice Options**, and **Items**. Brisk may refuse deletion when another record depends on this one; resolve the duplicate or use the supported correction workflow instead of breaking the trail.

On the confirmation page, verify **Group Name**. After confirmation, return to the Foodservice Option Groups list and make sure only the intended Foodservice Option Group was removed.

<h2 id="bkmrk-detail">Review Foodservice Option Group details</h2>

Use the detail page as the shared record of what this Foodservice Option Group currently means. Verify **Active** before relying on it for a decision.

Compare the Foodservice Option Group with its source document or approved setup request before deciding that it needs correction.

Next check: Open **Foodservice Options**, and **Items** and confirm the Foodservice Option Group appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

<h2 id="bkmrk-update">Edit an existing Foodservice Option Group</h2>

Edit this Foodservice Option Group when the underlying policy or classification changed. First determine whether historical transactions should retain the old value; if so, deactivate the old choice and create a new one.

1. Open the detail page. Compare **Group Name** with the supporting document or approved request.

2. Recheck **Active**. These values are most likely to change warehouse availability, replenishment, quantities, and valuation.

3. Save the change, return to the list, and confirm that the Foodservice Option Group now appears under the expected **Active**.

After the change: Open **Foodservice Options**, and **Items** and confirm the Foodservice Option Group appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

Use the Foodservice Option Groups list to find the correct record before opening or changing it. Compare **Group Name**. Compare the full identifier rather than relying on a similar name.

- The initial order emphasizes **Sort Order**, and **Group Name**. Select a column heading when you need a different comparison.

Open the Foodservice Option Group whose **Group Name** match the task. If it is missing, clear the list filters and recheck **Active** rather than creating a replacement immediately.

## Fields and business rules

Brisk stores 3 user-relevant fields for this Foodservice Option Group, including 0 linked-record selections and 0 controlled-choice fields. Create and edit screens may hide calculated or workflow-managed values from this full reference.

| Field | Required | What it controls |
|---|---:|---|
| **Group Name** | Yes | Human-readable name for this foodservice option group. |
| **Sort Order** | No | The sort order value recorded for this foodservice option group. |
| **Active** | No | Whether this foodservice option group is active and available for use. |

## What happens next

Open **Foodservice Options**, and **Items** and confirm the Foodservice Option Group appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

## Common mistakes and troubleshooting

- **The record will not save:** Recheck **Group Name** and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

- **The record saved but is not available where expected:** Recheck **Active**, then clear the filters on the destination list. A saved record can still be inactive, unpublished, locked, unapproved, or in the wrong workflow state.

- **The values look right but the result is wrong:** Compare this Foodservice Option Group with the source document or approved setup decision, then check the downstream screen where it is used.

# Inventory Adjustments

# Inventory Adjustments

<h2 id="bkmrk-overview">Purpose and when to use this record</h2>

Correct on-hand inventory for a warehouse with an auditable reason, quantities, costs, and resulting accounting impact.

## At a glance

- **Identify it by:** **Status**, and **Date Created**.

- **Check its business context:** **Warehouse**, and **Balancing Account**.

- **Why care:** Warehouse, item, unit, quantity, and cost must describe the same physical movement. A wrong warehouse or unit can make availability and valuation misleading.

- **Why care:** Treat posted, processed, paid, reversed, and edit-locked states as controls—not ordinary descriptive fields. Confirm the source transaction before changing any state that the screen permits you to change.

- **Why care:** Status communicates workflow progress to other staff. Change it only when the underlying work, approval, payment, or handoff has actually occurred.

## Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on inventory adjustments. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

Have valid **Balancing Account** records ready first. Those selections determine where this Inventory Adjustment belongs and which later screens can find it.

<h2 id="bkmrk-create">Create an Inventory Adjustment</h2>

Create an Inventory Adjustment only after confirming that the source document or operational event has not already been entered.

1. Select the business context first: **Warehouse**, and **Balancing Account**.

2. Enter the required identifying and operational values: **Balancing Account**.

3. Review **Status**, and **Edit Locked** deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record.

4. Save the Inventory Adjustment, then confirm **Status**, and **Date Created** on its detail page before continuing.

After saving: Review the resulting warehouse quantity and accounting entries. If the correction was wrong, make a traceable counter-adjustment rather than concealing the original event.

<h2 id="bkmrk-delete">Delete an Inventory Adjustment</h2>

Delete this Inventory Adjustment only when it was entered by mistake and no downstream history depends on it. Use a reversal, void, credit, counter-adjustment, or status correction for a real event that later changed.

Before confirming, check for related **Adjustment Lines**, **Inventory Records**, **Inventory Transfers**, and **Transactions**. Brisk may refuse deletion when another record depends on this one; resolve the duplicate or use the supported correction workflow instead of breaking the trail.

On the confirmation page, verify **Status**, and **Date Created**. After confirmation, return to the Inventory Adjustments list and make sure only the intended Inventory Adjustment was removed.

<h2 id="bkmrk-detail">Review Inventory Adjustment details</h2>

Use the detail page as the shared record of what this Inventory Adjustment currently means. Verify **Status**, **Date Created**, and **Edit Locked** before relying on it for a decision.

Follow **Warehouse**, and **Balancing Account** to determine whether the issue is on this Inventory Adjustment or on one of those linked records.

Next check: Review the resulting warehouse quantity and accounting entries. If the correction was wrong, make a traceable counter-adjustment rather than concealing the original event.

<h2 id="bkmrk-update">Edit an existing Inventory Adjustment</h2>

Edit this Inventory Adjustment to correct or complete the same source document or operational event; use the supported reversal or follow-up workflow when the business event itself changed.

1. Open the detail page. Compare **Warehouse**, and **Balancing Account** with the supporting document or approved request.

2. Recheck **Status**, **Warehouse**, **Date Created**, **Balancing Account**, and **Edit Locked**. These values are most likely to change warehouse availability, replenishment, quantities, and valuation.

3. Save the change, return to the list, and confirm that the Inventory Adjustment now appears under the expected **Status**, and **Edit Locked**.

After the change: Review the resulting warehouse quantity and accounting entries. If the correction was wrong, make a traceable counter-adjustment rather than concealing the original event.

## What happens next

Review the resulting warehouse quantity and accounting entries. If the correction was wrong, make a traceable counter-adjustment rather than concealing the original event.

## Common mistakes and troubleshooting

- **The record will not save:** Recheck **Balancing Account** and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

- **The record saved but is not available where expected:** Recheck **Status**, and **Edit Locked**, then clear the filters on the destination list. A saved record can still be inactive, unpublished, locked, unapproved, or in the wrong workflow state.

- **The values look right but the result is wrong:** Open **Warehouse**, and **Balancing Account** from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.

- **The values look right but the result is wrong:** Open **Vendor**, **Warehouse**, **Freight Vendor**, and **Purchase Order** from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.

# Inventory Transfers

# Inventory Transfers

<h2 id="bkmrk-overview">Purpose and when to use this record</h2>

Move stock between warehouses while preserving the source, destination, item quantities, and transfer status.

## At a glance

- **Identify it by:** **Status**, and **Date Created**.

- **Check its business context:** **From Warehouse**, **To Warehouse**, **From Adjustment**, and **To Adjustment**.

- **Why care:** Warehouse, item, unit, quantity, and cost must describe the same physical movement. A wrong warehouse or unit can make availability and valuation misleading.

- **Why care:** Treat posted, processed, paid, reversed, and edit-locked states as controls—not ordinary descriptive fields. Confirm the source transaction before changing any state that the screen permits you to change.

- **Why care:** Status communicates workflow progress to other staff. Change it only when the underlying work, approval, payment, or handoff has actually occurred.

## Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on inventory transfers. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

Have valid **From Warehouse**, and **To Warehouse** records ready first. Those selections determine where this Inventory Transfer belongs and which later screens can find it.

<h2 id="bkmrk-create">Create an Inventory Transfer</h2>

<figure class="brisk-doc-media"><img src="https://help.brisksystems.us/uploads/images/gallery/2026-08/article-modelinventoryinventorytransfer-create-inventory-transfer-create.png" alt="Brisk Inventory Transfers create screen displayed with fictional documentation-demo data." loading="lazy" style="max-width:100%;height:auto;"><figcaption>The Inventory Transfers create screen in the Brisk documentation demo.</figcaption></figure>

Create an Inventory Transfer only after confirming that the source document or operational event has not already been entered.

1. Select the business context first: **From Warehouse**, **To Warehouse**, **From Adjustment**, and **To Adjustment**.

2. Enter the required identifying and operational values: **From Warehouse**, and **To Warehouse**.

3. Review **Status**, **Processed**, and **Edit Locked** deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record.

4. Save the Inventory Transfer, then confirm **Status**, and **Date Created** on its detail page before continuing.

After saving: Confirm the source decreased and the destination increased for the same item quantities before considering the movement complete.

<h2 id="bkmrk-detail">Review Inventory Transfer details</h2>

Use the detail page as the shared record of what this Inventory Transfer currently means. Verify **Status**, **Date Created**, **Processed**, and **Edit Locked** before relying on it for a decision.

Follow **From Warehouse**, **To Warehouse**, **From Adjustment**, and **To Adjustment** to determine whether the issue is on this Inventory Transfer or on one of those linked records.

Next check: Confirm the source decreased and the destination increased for the same item quantities before considering the movement complete.

Use the Inventory Transfers list to find the correct record before opening or changing it. Compare **Status**, and **Date Created**. Records with similar names or numbers can still belong to different **From Warehouse**, **To Warehouse**, **From Adjustment**, and **To Adjustment**.

- The initial order emphasizes **Id**. Select a column heading when you need a different comparison.

Open the Inventory Transfer whose **Status**, and **Date Created** match the task. If it is missing, clear the list filters and recheck **Status**, **Processed**, and **Edit Locked** rather than creating a replacement immediately.

## Fields and business rules

Brisk stores 9 user-relevant fields for this Inventory Transfer, including 4 linked-record selections and 1 controlled-choice field. Create and edit screens may hide calculated or workflow-managed values from this full reference.

| Field | Required | What it controls |
|---|---:|---|
| **Status** | No | Indicates whether this transfer has been processed. Available values: Draft, Complete. |
| **From Warehouse** | Yes | The from warehouse associated with this inventory transfer. |
| **To Warehouse** | Yes | The to warehouse associated with this inventory transfer. |
| **Date Created** | No | Date and time recorded for date created on this inventory transfer. |
| **Memo** | No | The memo recorded for this inventory transfer. |

| **To Adjustment** | No | The to adjustment associated with this inventory transfer. |
| **Processed** | No | Whether the processed option applies to this inventory transfer. |
| **Edit Locked** | No | Whether the edit locked option applies to this inventory transfer. |

## What happens next

Confirm the source decreased and the destination increased for the same item quantities before considering the movement complete.

## Common mistakes and troubleshooting

- **The record will not save:** Recheck **From Warehouse**, and **To Warehouse** and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

- **The record saved but is not available where expected:** Recheck **Status**, **Processed**, and **Edit Locked**, then clear the filters on the destination list. A saved record can still be inactive, unpublished, locked, unapproved, or in the wrong workflow state.

- **The values look right but the result is wrong:** Open **From Warehouse**, **To Warehouse**, **From Adjustment**, and **To Adjustment** from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.

# Item Classes

# Item Classes

<h2 id="bkmrk-overview">Purpose and when to use this record</h2>

Group items for consistent reporting, defaults, pricing, and operational handling.

## At a glance

- **Identify it by:** **Name**, and **Code**.

- **Check its business context:** **Asset Account**, **Expense Account**, **Cogs Account**, and **Revenue Account**.

- **Why care:** Warehouse, item, unit, quantity, and cost must describe the same physical movement. A wrong warehouse or unit can make availability and valuation misleading.

## Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on item classes. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

Create an Item Class only when the existing choices do not represent the policy or classification you need. Near-duplicate setup values split reporting and make later selection harder.

1. Select the business context first: **Asset Account**, **Expense Account**, **Cogs Account**, and **Revenue Account**.

2. Enter the required identifying and operational values: **Name**.

3. Review **Can Be Manufactured** deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record.

4. Save the Item Class, then confirm **Name**, and **Code** on its detail page before continuing.

After saving: Open **Items**, and **Tax Rules** and confirm the Item Class appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

<h2 id="bkmrk-delete">Delete an Item Class</h2>

Delete this Item Class only if it is an unused duplicate or setup mistake. Once other records refer to it, preserve that history and make the value inactive when the screen provides that option.

Before confirming, check for related **Items**, and **Tax Rules**. Brisk may refuse deletion when another record depends on this one; resolve the duplicate or use the supported correction workflow instead of breaking the trail.

On the confirmation page, verify **Name**, and **Code**. After confirmation, return to the Item Classes list and make sure only the intended Item Class was removed.

<h2 id="bkmrk-detail">Review Item Class details</h2>

Follow **Asset Account**, **Expense Account**, **Cogs Account**, and **Revenue Account** to determine whether the issue is on this Item Class or on one of those linked records.

Next check: Open **Items**, and **Tax Rules** and confirm the Item Class appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

<h2 id="bkmrk-update">Edit an existing Item Class</h2>

Edit this Item Class when the underlying policy or classification changed. First determine whether historical transactions should retain the old value; if so, deactivate the old choice and create a new one.

1. Open the detail page. Compare **Asset Account**, **Expense Account**, **Cogs Account**, and **Revenue Account** with the supporting document or approved request.

2. Recheck **Asset Account**, **Expense Account**, **Cogs Account**, and **Revenue Account**. These values are most likely to change warehouse availability, replenishment, quantities, and valuation.

3. Save the change, return to the list, and confirm that the Item Class now appears under the expected **Name**, and **Code**.

After the change: Open **Items**, and **Tax Rules** and confirm the Item Class appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

Follow **Customer Class**, and **Item** to determine whether the issue is on this price rule or on one of those linked records.

Next check: Use **Customer Class**, and **Item** to interpret this price rule. If it records a failure or exception, correct the source process and create a new successful event rather than rewriting the audit trail.

## Fields and business rules

Brisk stores 8 user-relevant fields for this price rule, including 2 linked-record selections and 2 controlled-choice fields. Create and edit screens may hide calculated or workflow-managed values from this full reference.

| Field | Required | What it controls |
|---|---:|---|
| **Customer Class** | Yes | The customer class associated with this price rule. |
| **Item** | No | Links this price rule to the selected Item; verify the relationship before saving. |
| **Rule Base** | Yes | Use this field to determine whether to mark up from cost or mark down from MSRP. Available values: Cost, MSRP. |
| **Rule Value** | No | Use this field to enter an arbitrary value for Cost or MSRP to calculate a price. If used as a cost, this field will intelligently try to suggest existing costs but the value here does not tamper with the costing system -- for all intents and purposes this value is used for planning pricing. |
| **Modifier** | Yes | This field determines whether the Value field will behave as a percentage of the base or if it will be straight additional margin. Available values: Percent, Margin. |
| **Value** | Yes | The value value recorded for this price rule. |
| **Calculated Price** | No | The calculated price value recorded for this price rule. |
| **Info** | No | Automatic pricing systems in Brisk will annotate their calculations here. |

## What happens next

Use **Customer Class**, and **Item** to interpret this price rule. If it records a failure or exception, correct the source process and create a new successful event rather than rewriting the audit trail.

## Common mistakes and troubleshooting

- **The record will not save:** Recheck **Customer Class**, **Rule Base**, **Modifier**, and **Value** and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

- **The values look right but the result is wrong:** Open **Customer Class**, and **Item** from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.

# Price Schedules

# Price Schedules

<h2 id="bkmrk-overview">Purpose and when to use this record</h2>

Define a named set of item prices that can be assigned to customers or business situations.

## At a glance

- **Identify it by:** **Beginning Date**, **Ending Date**, and **Label**.

- **Check its business context:** **Warehouse**, and **Previous**.

- **Why care:** Warehouse, item, unit, quantity, and cost must describe the same physical movement. A wrong warehouse or unit can make availability and valuation misleading.

- **Why care:** Availability and publication flags affect future use without erasing history. Prefer disabling an obsolete setup record when existing transactions still refer to it.

## Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on price schedules. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

Have valid **Warehouse** records ready first. Those selections determine where this Price Schedule belongs and which later screens can find it.

<h2 id="bkmrk-create">Create a Price Schedule</h2>

<figure class="brisk-doc-media"><img src="https://help.brisksystems.us/uploads/images/gallery/2026-08/article-modelinventorypriceschedule-create-price-schedule-create.png" alt="Brisk Price Schedules create screen displayed with fictional documentation-demo data." loading="lazy" style="max-width:100%;height:auto;"><figcaption>The Price Schedules create screen in the Brisk documentation demo.</figcaption></figure>

Create a Price Schedule only when the existing choices do not represent the policy or classification you need. Near-duplicate setup values split reporting and make later selection harder.

1. Select the business context first: **Warehouse**, and **Previous**.

2. Enter the required identifying and operational values: **Beginning Date**, **Ending Date**, and **Warehouse**.

3. Review **Active** deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record.

4. Save the Price Schedule, then confirm **Beginning Date**, **Ending Date**, and **Label** on its detail page before continuing.

After saving: Open **Price Schedule Items**, and **Price Schedules** and confirm the Price Schedule appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

<h2 id="bkmrk-delete">Delete a Price Schedule</h2>

Delete this Price Schedule only if it is an unused duplicate or setup mistake. Once other records refer to it, preserve that history and make the value inactive when the screen provides that option.

If the record is merely obsolete, use **Active** to remove it from future use while preserving existing references.

Before confirming, check for related **Price Schedule Items**, and **Price Schedules**. Brisk may refuse deletion when another record depends on this one; resolve the duplicate or use the supported correction workflow instead of breaking the trail.

On the confirmation page, verify **Beginning Date**, **Ending Date**, and **Label**. After confirmation, return to the Price Schedules list and make sure only the intended Price Schedule was removed.

<h2 id="bkmrk-detail">Review Price Schedule details</h2>

Use the detail page as the shared record of what this Price Schedule currently means. Verify **Beginning Date**, **Ending Date**, and **Active** before relying on it for a decision.

Follow **Warehouse**, and **Previous** to determine whether the issue is on this Price Schedule or on one of those linked records.

Next check: Open **Price Schedule Items**, and **Price Schedules** and confirm the Price Schedule appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

<h2 id="bkmrk-update">Edit an existing Price Schedule</h2>

Edit this Price Schedule when the underlying policy or classification changed. First determine whether historical transactions should retain the old value; if so, deactivate the old choice and create a new one.

1. Open the detail page. Compare **Warehouse**, and **Previous** with the supporting document or approved request.

2. Recheck **Beginning Date**, **Ending Date**, **Warehouse**, and **Active**. These values are most likely to change warehouse availability, replenishment, quantities, and valuation.

3. Save the change, return to the list, and confirm that the Price Schedule now appears under the expected **Active**.

After the change: Open **Price Schedule Items**, and **Price Schedules** and confirm the Price Schedule appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

Use the Price Schedules list to find the correct record before opening or changing it. Compare **Beginning Date**, and **Ending Date**. Records with similar names or numbers can still belong to different **Warehouse**, and **Previous**.

Open the Price Schedule whose **Beginning Date**, and **Ending Date** match the task. If it is missing, clear the list filters and recheck **Active** rather than creating a replacement immediately.

## Fields and business rules

Brisk stores 6 user-relevant fields for this Price Schedule, including 2 linked-record selections and 0 controlled-choice fields. Create and edit screens may hide calculated or workflow-managed values from this full reference.

| Field | Required | What it controls |
|---|---:|---|
| **Beginning Date** | Yes | Records the date that this price schedule begins taking effect. |
| **Ending Date** | Yes | Records the date that this price schedule stops taking effect. |
| **Label** | No | Give this price schedule a specific name. If left blank, it will be labelled by its beginning date. |
| **Warehouse** | Yes | Sets the warehouse that this price schedule applies to. |
| **Previous** | No | Links to the price schedule that this one was copied from. |
| **Active** | No | If a given price schedule is marked as active for a warehouse, it will take effect. Only one price schedule may be active per warehouse. |

## What happens next

Open **Price Schedule Items**, and **Price Schedules** and confirm the Price Schedule appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

## Common mistakes and troubleshooting

- **The record will not save:** Recheck **Beginning Date**, **Ending Date**, and **Warehouse** and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

- **The record saved but is not available where expected:** Recheck **Active**, then clear the filters on the destination list. A saved record can still be inactive, unpublished, locked, unapproved, or in the wrong workflow state.

- **The values look right but the result is wrong:** Open **Warehouse**, and **Previous** from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.

# Purchase Orders

# Purchase Orders

<h2 id="bkmrk-overview">Purpose and when to use this record</h2>

Create and manage purchase orders from vendor commitment through partial or complete receiving.

## At a glance

- **Identify it by:** **Purchase #**, **Status**, **Date Created**, and **Ship Date**.

- **Check its business context:** **Vendor**, **Warehouse**, **Freight Vendor**, and **Parent**.

- **Why care:** Warehouse, item, unit, quantity, and cost must describe the same physical movement. A wrong warehouse or unit can make availability and valuation misleading.

- **Why care:** Status communicates workflow progress to other staff. Change it only when the underlying work, approval, payment, or handoff has actually occurred.

## Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on purchase orders. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

<h2 id="bkmrk-create">Create a Purchase</h2>

Create a Purchase only after confirming that the source document or operational event has not already been entered.

1. Select the business context first: **Vendor**, **Warehouse**, **Freight Vendor**, and **Parent**.

2. Enter the identifying values shown on the form, especially **Purchase #**, **Status**, **Vendor**, **Warehouse**, **Date Created**, and **Ship Date**, plus the remaining screen fields.

3. Review **Status**, and **Submitted To Vendor** deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record.

4. Save the Purchase, then confirm **Purchase #**, **Status**, **Date Created**, and **Ship Date** on its detail page before continuing.

After saving: Send the approved order to the vendor, then receive actual deliveries against it; partial receipts should leave the unreceived balance open.

<h2 id="bkmrk-delete">Delete a Purchase</h2>

Delete this Purchase only when it was entered by mistake and no downstream history depends on it. Use a reversal, void, credit, counter-adjustment, or status correction for a real event that later changed.

Before confirming, check for related **Inventory Receipts**, **Inventory Records**, **Purchase Rows**, and **Transactions**. Brisk may refuse deletion when another record depends on this one; resolve the duplicate or use the supported correction workflow instead of breaking the trail.

On the confirmation page, verify **Purchase #**, **Status**, **Date Created**, and **Ship Date**. After confirmation, return to the Purchase Orders list and make sure only the intended Purchase was removed.

# Vendor Credit Memos

# Vendor Credit Memos

<h2 id="bkmrk-overview">Purpose and when to use this record</h2>

Record a vendor-issued credit for returned goods, pricing corrections, or other reductions to payables.

## At a glance

- **Identify it by:** **Status**, **Credit Memo / Invoice #**, and **Date Created**.

- **Check its business context:** **Vendor**, and **Warehouse**.

- **Why care:** Warehouse, item, unit, quantity, and cost must describe the same physical movement. A wrong warehouse or unit can make availability and valuation misleading.

- **Why care:** Treat posted, processed, paid, reversed, and edit-locked states as controls—not ordinary descriptive fields. Confirm the source transaction before changing any state that the screen permits you to change.

- **Why care:** Status communicates workflow progress to other staff. Change it only when the underlying work, approval, payment, or handoff has actually occurred.

## Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on vendor credit memos. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

Use the detail page as the shared record of what this warehouse currently means. Verify **Name**, **Warehouse #**, **Division**, and **Description** before relying on it for a decision.

Follow **Division**, and **Write-Off Account** to determine whether the issue is on this warehouse or on one of those linked records.

Next check: Verify this warehouse in **Accounts**, **Deposit Balancing Transactions**, **Deposits**, and **Expense/Asset Categories**, plus the remaining screen fields before staff build new activity on it; correct ownership, classification, and active state now rather than after transactions accumulate.

Use the Warehouses list to find the correct record before opening or changing it. Compare **Name**, and **Warehouse #**. Records with similar names or numbers can still belong to different **Division**, and **Write-Off Account**.

- The initial order emphasizes **Name**. Select a column heading when you need a different comparison.

Open the warehouse whose **Name**, and **Warehouse #** match the task. If it is missing, clear the list filters and recheck the identifying information shown on the screen rather than creating a replacement immediately.

<h2 id="bkmrk-update">Edit an existing warehouse</h2>

Edit this warehouse to keep the same real-world party, item, location, or resource accurate. Do not repurpose it for a different entity after activity is attached.

1. Open the detail page. Compare **Division**, and **Write-Off Account** with the supporting document or approved request.

2. Recheck **Warehouse #**. These values are most likely to change warehouse availability, replenishment, quantities, and valuation.

3. Save the change, return to the list, and confirm that the warehouse now appears under the expected **Name**, and **Warehouse #**.

After the change: Verify this warehouse in **Accounts**, **Deposit Balancing Transactions**, **Deposits**, and **Expense/Asset Categories**, plus the remaining screen fields before staff build new activity on it; correct ownership, classification, and active state now rather than after transactions accumulate.

## Common mistakes and troubleshooting

- **The record will not save:** Recheck **Name** and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

- **The values look right but the result is wrong:** Open **Division**, and **Write-Off Account** from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.
