All manufactured items should be acquired through the manufacturing process. FastBound tracks which items are manufactured, which will allow you to create your reports required by the ATF and IRS.

If you are manufacturing from an existing item you would begin here.
If you are manufacturing a new item from scratch, you would use the Manufacturing New Items process.

To manufacture items from existing items, you must have the required fields below.

Dispose Date is required and cannot be a future date.
Dispose Date cannot be before the Item’s Acquire Date.
