Inventory Item Defaults
How Do I...
- To set up or review inventory
item defaults, select Default
Information from the Maintain
menu, and choose Inventory
Items.
Sage 50 lets you set up default information for inventory
items. Use this feature like a template or model upon which to
build all your item records. You enter the most common information. Then,
when you set up new inventory
items and enter transactions, the default information is automatically
included. In most cases, you won't have to enter anything.

Maintaining
item prices
In Maintain Inventory Item Defaults, you can set up default-level
price calculations that determine the prices you generally charge for
items.
Note: The Maintain Item
Prices window lets you change
these default calculations for individual items or a range of items. (Sage 50 Premium Accounting and higher)

with specific fields or folders
Besides settings
that determine how Sage 50 handles general issues such as out-of-stock
warnings, default
information for inventory includes:
- General Ledger Accounts and Costing Methods for
each item class
- Item Tax and Shipping Information
- Item Custom Fields
- Item Sales Price Levels
All of this information is set up in New
Company Setup. Or, you can add or modify defaults through the Maintain, Default
Information menu.
