Manage Sampling in a Separate Season - Raw Materials

If you have different costs for raw materials and make costs from sampling to production, you might want to separate sample production from bulk production into separate seasons.

Important: If you have inventory it is essential to separate sampling season from production to ensure you have an accurate product stock and raw material inventory for your raw material sampling orders before producing your bulk season.

Inventory Module is an optional add-on. For more details contact us at HELLO ZEDONK.
