We have stock items that do not need to be checked into the system in some instances, and others they do need to be checked in. If we raise a purchase order with these stock items, is there a way to not check them in and close off the purchase order?
For additional context, when we were setting up our system, our consultant helped us set up the following manufacturing flow. We have an item that undergoes manufacturing steps at 3 different suppliers. To track the manufacturing flow, we created a BOM with the main part being machined as a stock item and then the subsequent steps are non-stock item services provided to the stock item. I have included a little table below to describe the process. Should I start receiving these goods/not backflushing them?
