Add stock from pricebook

Creates stock items from existing pricebook rows while keeping the linked material, supplier, SKU, barcode, and cost source.

Use a pricebook-linked stock item when the inventory row should retain the supplier, SKU, barcode and cost context used in estimating and purchasing.

Before you start

Availability: Team plan and above. Enabled business features, role permissions, connected providers and supported devices may add requirements.

Documented roles: Owner, Office, Team. A role name alone does not override the permissions set by your business.

Where to find it: Stock > Add from pricebook.

Find or create the correct pricebook row first. Confirm the unit, supplier identity and barcode before entering an opening quantity.

The stock screen exposes the Add from pricebook controls above the example inventory. Select the intended item and location, then verify the resulting stock record.

Step by step

  1. Open Stock from the sidebar or go to /stock.
  2. If the item is not in the pricebook yet, open Pricebook from the sidebar, add the row, then return to Stock.
  3. On Stock, open Add from pricebook, search the row, enter Qty on hand, Reorder at, Reorder qty, and Opening stock location if locations are enabled.
  4. Press Add so the stock item links back to the pricebook SKU, barcode, supplier, and cost source.

Worked example

Add a commonly used fitting from the pricebook, enter the counted quantity and reorder settings, and choose the opening warehouse or van location where enabled.

This is an illustrative scenario. Use your own approved scope, quantities, rates and business rules.

Check the result

Open the resulting stock item and verify its source row, identifying codes, cost and location balance. Compare the opening quantity with a physical count.

Limits and troubleshooting

Similar names do not prove two products are interchangeable. Check SKU and pack units so a box quantity is not accidentally recorded as individual items.
