Current Inventory

[Tommyguns0311]

I have uploaded all of my purchases for supplies this year. I have not used "start batch" before. So I have multiple entries for the same oil that I purchased and it thinks I have much more on hand than I actually do. I see where I can edit the amount per purchase, but how do I add the totals? You can see in the attachment that I have jojoba oil purchased multiple times. Should I edit the "remaining" to zero for all past purchases to make it accurate to what I have on hand? I wish I could edit one base oil and not each time I purchased it.

That’s probably the best way to do it if you don’t want to delete the I guess.

You can always edit totals if you want to keep track of inventory, by the way, and not add new purchases. The new purchases are great, especially if you have a different cost or need to track lot numbers of ingredients. But for my use at home, I don’t need that as I don’t sell soap. So I just change the amounts on hand when I get new oils since I only use it for inventory, not cost. I hope that makes sense!

All I really care about is how much I have on hand. What do you think is the best way to do that?

What I do is just edit the ingredient, say castor oil, adding the new 12 ounces or whatever onto what I have on hand and don't add a new purchase.
