How to Edit/Order Inventory in Tan-Link

Once products have been added to your inventory, you will need to ADD the quantities in-stock to your site.  To do so, you will go to PRODUCTS > UPDATE STOCK OR PLACE ORDER.

Once selected, the following window will appear.  You can either scan the UPC into the box, type in a key phrase in the name of the product, or just click on the SEARCH box to pull up ALL products that are marked as being in stock in your site. 

Once you have entered your search criteria, you will see a screen appear that looks as follows.  If you have more than one  location, your locations will appear in columns.  For multiple locations, you may see a scroll arrow to rotate to the next block of locations.  If you are wishing to add quantities to a particular location, you will click on the "+" and enter the quantity.  

If you need to remove product from inventory, you will click on the "-" and enter the following as appears in the window below.  A reason for removal is REQUIRED for the entry to be accepted. 

At any time, you may pull up the HISTORY of a product, by clicking on  "[HISTORY]" to the left of the product name.  This will show all product sales, when an item was added to inventory, and ANY manual adjustments made to inventory for tracking purposes.

Once clicked on, the history will show as per the image below:

If you are wishing to place an order and want to track the purchase history in your site, you will click on the "ORDER" button as you see below.  In the window that pops up you will enter the quantity you wish to order for each location.  

Tan-Link will allow you to add a minimum stock quantity to your site of the number of product you want to have in stock at all times for that item.  Once entered, the system will automatically calculate and inform you of how many items you need to purchase to meet that and makes it easy to order the proper quantities.

As you add items to your order, you will see a shopping cart icon appear on the top right of your screen as shown below.  This informs you of how many different types of items you have in your cart. 

If you click on the shopping cart, the following window will appear to show you what you have entered to order so far.  If you have entered a quantity incorrectly, or have decided you do NOT wish to purchase an item, you will click on the red trashcan icon to the right of the item to remove it completely.  If necessary, you can then add the proper quantity back to order.

Once an order is ready to go, you will click on the "Place Order" button shown above.   This email will send to whomever is listed as the "supplier" under your General Settings.  To set this, you will go to  General Setting > and search for "supplier" in the HEADINGS box.  The following window will appear.  You will select this item and in the settings enter the First Name of the person the order should be shipped to followed by a ";" then the email address of the person it is going to.
