| Master File Overview In the Scrap Dragon software, items that you purchase are referred to as commodities and items that you sell are referred to as inventory. Many commodities can be processed and then sold as one inventory item. For example you may purchase appliances, flattened cars, whole cars and buses (all commodities) which you shred and sell as the inventory item shredded. Commodities are given a 'scale price' which is their default selling price. You can also set up different price lists, and when you associate customers with these lists it determines the price they are paid for commodities you buy from them. The following screens will step you through the process of setting up your Master Files, that is your inventory, commodities, customers, and price lists. It is important to follow the sequence on the setup page, as certain things may be required before you can go to the next step. All of the Master Files Setup screens can be found in the Back Office Module, under the Master Files Menu Setting up inventory From the Master Files Menu Select Inventory; Inventory Master. These are your “Sell Items”. The Sell Inventory Items Tab displays the list of inventory items that have already been setup. Clicking this tab will display a list of all your inventory items. You may scroll down and when you find the item you are looking for, you can click on it, then click on the Inventory Setup tab, and that item will appear for editing. Enter your Sell Item Codes and a Description for each item. To add a new Inventory item, press the Add button. Enter the pertinent data and then press save. The Default Button information is for use in creating button menus for inventory processing. Back to Setup Checklist Forward to Commodities
