You'll set the stock settings that matter, understand FIFO and moving average valuation, and see how perpetual inventory posts to the accounts. You'll add landed costs, deal with negative stock, correct mistakes with reposting, let ERPNext raise Material Requests at reorder level, and use quality inspection, pick lists and putaway rules.
