## Stock Expiry
|
|
|
|
InvenTree supports stock expiration dates, which allows individual stock items to be automatically marked as *expired* past a certain calendar date.
|
|
|
|
The stock expiry feature is disabled by default, and must be enabled via the settings menu:
|
|
|
|
{% with id="stock_expiry", url="stock/enable_stock_expiry.png", description="Enable stock expiry feature" %}
|
|
{% include 'img.html' %}
|
|
{% endwith %}
|
|
|
|
!!! info "Non Expiring Stock"
|
|
If a Stock Item is not expected to expire, leave the expiry date field blank, or zero
|
|
|
|
### Add Expiry Date
|
|
|
|
When creating a new stock item, the expiry date can be manually set by the user.
|
|
|
|
{% with id="expiry_create", url="stock/expiry_date_create.png", description="Add expiry date" %}
|
|
{% include 'img.html' %}
|
|
{% endwith %}
|
|
|
|
If an expiry date is defined for a particular stock item, it will be displayed on the detail page. If the expiry date has passed (and the stock item is *expired*) then this will also be indicated.
|
|
|
|
{% with id="item_expired", url="stock/item_expired.png", description="Display expiry date" %}
|
|
{% include 'img.html' %}
|
|
{% endwith %}
|
|
|
|
The expiry date can be adjusted in the stock item edit form.
|
|
|
|
{% with id="expiry_edit", url="stock/expiry_date_edit.png", description="Edit expiry date" %}
|
|
{% include 'img.html' %}
|
|
{% endwith %}
|
|
|
|
### Filter Expired Stock
|
|
|
|
The various stock display tables can be filtered by *expired* status, and also display a column for the expiry date for each stock item.
|
|
|
|
{% with id="stock_table_expiry", url="stock/stock_table_expiry.png", description="Filter by stock expiry" %}
|
|
{% include 'img.html' %}
|
|
{% endwith %}
|
|
|
|
### Index Page
|
|
|
|
If the stock expiry feature is enabled, expired stock are listed on the InvenTree home page, to provide visibility of expired stock to the users.
|
|
|
|
## Part Expiry Time
|
|
|
|
In addition to allowing manual configuration of expiry dates on a per-item basis, InvenTree also provides the ability to set a "default expiry time" for a particular Part. This expiry time (specified in *days*) is then used to automatically calculate the expiry date when creating a new Stock Item as an instance of the given Part.
|
|
|
|
For example, if a Part has a default expiry time of 30 days, then any Stock Items created for that Part will automatically have their expiry date set to 30 days in the future.
|
|
|
|
!!! info "Non Expiring Parts"
|
|
If a part is not expected to expire, set the default expiry time to 0 (zero) days.
|
|
|
|
If a Part has a non-zero default expiry time, it will be displayed on the Part details page
|
|
|
|
{% with id="part_expiry_display", url="stock/part_expiry_display.png", description="Part expiry" %}
|
|
{% include 'img.html' %}
|
|
{% endwith %}
|
|
|
|
The Part expiry time can be altered using the Part editing form.
|
|
|
|
{% with id="part_expiry_edit", url="stock/part_expiry.png", description="Edit part expiry" %}
|
|
{% include 'img.html' %}
|
|
{% endwith %}
|
|
|
|
## Sales and Build Orders
|
|
|
|
By default, expired Stock Items cannot be added to neither a Sales Order nor a Build Order. This behavior can be adjusted using the *Sell Expired Stock* and *Build Expired Stock* settings:
|
|
|
|
{% with id="sell_build_expired", url="stock/sell_build_expired_stock.png", description="Sell Build Expired Stock" %}
|
|
{% include 'img.html' %}
|
|
{% endwith %}
