When partial quantities come back from a job, for example half a roll or part of a box, they are not returned against the original pull. The job consumed them and the job is charged for them. Inventory HQ uses a specific restock process to keep the original job cost accurate while still capturing the leftover value back into inventory.
This keeps the original job’s cost accurate while still capturing the leftover value back into inventory. Returning a partial against the original pull would understate that job’s true material cost.

​
The approved process for partials

1

Create a new inventory item for the partial

Create a new inventory item named for the partial, for example “Synthetic Felt – Half Roll”.
2

Price it proportionally

Price the new item proportionally to the full item. A half roll is priced at half the full-roll price.
3

Restock it into the correct location

Use Restock on the new item and add it into the correct warehouse or service truck. It is now available to be pulled on a future job at the correct value.

​
Partials vs. returns

Partial quantities and full unused units are handled differently in Inventory HQ:
Return Material is for full unused units only. Partial or leftover quantities must be restocked as a new item, never returned against the original pull.
