Stock - Creating a New Stock Code - Browse Supplier

INTRODUCTION
Creating new stock codes through Browse Suppliers is easy.

When creating codes a few things to remember:
1. A code has to be unique with NO special characters # % " % *. The code can be 25 characters long and alphanumeric.
2. As well as the code a barcode has to be unique also and CANNOT be used on different codes.
3. Case Types: A case type is how you purchase and sell products.
      E.g. A 60 meter roll of piping purchased from supplier RollMtr(60)
      The number in brackets is the number of meters on the roll.
4. If, Category, Group and Types are used these must exist in agility before they can be attached to a code.
