| title: Manufacturers | ||||
| --- | ||||
|  | ||||
| ## Manufacturers | ||||
|  | ||||
| A manufacturer is an external **producer** of parts and raw materials. | ||||
|  | ||||
| To access the manufacturer page, click on the <span class="badge inventree nav main"><span class='fas fa-shopping-cart'></span> Buy</span> navigation tab and click on <span class="badge inventree nav main"><span class='fas fa-industry'></span> Manufacturers</span> option in the dropdown list. | ||||
|  | ||||
| !!! warning | ||||
| 	**Viewing**, **adding**, **editing** and **deleting** manufacturers require the corresponding [Purchase Orders user permissions](../settings/permissions.md) | ||||
|  | ||||
| ### Add Manufacturer | ||||
|  | ||||

|  | ||||
| !!! info "Manufacturer vs Supplier" | ||||
| 	In the case the manufacturer sells directly to customers, you may want to enable the checkbox `is supplier` before submitting the form (you can also enable it later on). Purchase orders rely exclusively on [supplier parts](./supplier.md#supplier-parts), therefore the manufacturer will need to be set as a supplier too. | ||||

|  | ||||
| #### Upload File | ||||

|  | ||||
| ### Receive Line Items | ||||
|  | ||||

|  | ||||

| To do so, click on the <span class='fas fa-check-circle'></span> button on the main purchase order detail panel and confirm the order was completed. | ||||
