Operations Settings
Operations Settings is a small page with disproportionate effect: it decides how goods enter your stock and whether a transfer needs to be confirmed on arrival. Two switches, and they set the discipline of your whole inventory process.

The two settings
Stock receive mode chooses between two ways of bringing goods in:
| Mode | How it behaves | Suits |
|---|---|---|
| Direct | Goods are added to stock at the moment the purchase or transfer is recorded. Fast, one step. | A single location where the person buying is the person receiving |
| Stock receiving order | A separate receiving order must be completed, counting received against expected. | Any business where buying and receiving are different people, or where supplier shortages need to be provable |
Transfer receipt decides whether the destination branch must confirm a transfer before its stock lands. With it on, quantities sent and quantities received are both recorded and differences are explicit. With it off, a transfer is trusted the moment it is sent.
The receiving-order form also offers add scan products and preload products, which control whether lines are built by scanning items as they come off the pallet or by loading the expected list first and adjusting it.
Choosing your setup
- If one person buys, receives and sells, direct mode is honest and saves work.
- The moment those roles split, switch to receiving orders. The cost is one extra step per delivery; the return is that every supplier shortage has a document behind it.
- Turn transfer receipt on as soon as you have more than one branch. Untracked transfers are the most common source of two branches disagreeing about stock.
- Use scan-based line entry in a busy receiving bay, and preloaded lines when deliveries usually match the order.

Standard list tools
Every list page in OSOSS shares these controls:
- Manage columns - the icon at the right edge of the header row: search columns, tick to show or hide, drag to reorder. Your selection persists for your user.
- Quick search - matches the page's primary field.
- Filter chips + More Filters - the chips are your defaults; More Filters exposes the full set below.
- Save Filter / Saved Filters - name a filter combination and recall it in one click; one can be your default view.
- Reset - clears filters back to defaults.
- Export All - downloads the current filtered rows with exactly the columns you have selected.
- Focus - hides the surrounding chrome for a full-width table.
- Row selection - the header checkbox selects the page or all matching rows, enabling bulk actions.
- Rows per page and page jumper - at the foot of the table.
- Custom fields - anything you define under Settings > Custom Fields appears here as both a column and a filter.
