Edit physical stock in Board library
With Stock control any manual changes to the Board library should be carefully controlled. The stock adjustment options allow for manual changes. The options are on the 'Stock menu' at the main screen.
Plus - add stock quantities manually
Minus - remove stock quantities manually
Import/Adjust stock from file - import stock
Overwrite stock from file - import and overwrite existing stock values
The latter two options are typically used when the Board library is regularly updated from another external library or perhaps to make a larger adjustment to a specific range of board codes.
Set up
Before using the option to Import or Overwrite stock check: System parameters - Stock control tab. There are several settings that control the update operation including setting the format for the import file.
Notes
- Do not confuse these options with the options at the main screen for 'Importing boards' - the main screen options are for importing boards to a board list NOT the board library.
