 - Add customers and vendors before creating orders.
 - Add parts and assemblies in the Parts module.
 - Define assembly components in the Assemblies module.
+- Create SOs and POs by selecting actual inventory items from the item master instead of typing free-form SKUs.
 - Use purchase orders to restock and receive inventory.
 - Use build transactions to convert component stock into assembly stock.
 - Use sales orders and ship them fully or partially to reduce stock and generate invoices plus journal entries.
