Job materials are models or untracked models you place into a job.  When you add materials to a job you can set the provisioned qty and afterwards consume qty used and restock unused qty.  

  • Click into the Add Materials field and begin typing to search and select the materials you would like to add. 

  • Each material added will populate the materials section of the job.  These materials are first listed with a qty of zero. After adding materials be sure to save the job to save your changes.

  • Now that the materials are listed on the job you can set the Provisioned Qty for these.  Before we go further let us define what a provisioned qty is.  A provisioned qty is the qty you added to the job that is not yet consumed.  This means at any point you can restock some or all of that provisioned qty.  For example: if my jeweler requires solder for the project but I do not have an exact qty.  I can provision a certain amount.  

  • When the job returns to me I can consume the qty the jeweler utilized and restock the unused remaining qty.  Again remeber to utilize the save icon to save any changes you apply. In the below pictured example we have consumed 8 qty.

  • We will now restock the remaining 2 qty
