Subcontracting

Subcontracting is for sending your material to a vendor for processing and receiving it back finished, or the reverse where you do job work for a customer. It holds Subcontracting Order, Subcontracting Receipt, Subcontracting Inward Order and the related Stock Entries, with three count cards and the Subcontracting Order chart. The demo books do not use it. The vendor's charge is booked as a Purchase Invoice with TDS at the contract rate where it applies; your material never leaves Stock In Hand, it only moves to the vendor's warehouse.

2. 02Flag the finished item as subcontracted on its Item record.

6. 06Read the order count cards to see work still outstanding.
