Automated Inventory Valuation

In that case, when a product enters or leaves your stock, an accounting entry will be automatically created. This means your accounting books are always up-to-date. This mode is dedicated to expert accountants and advanced users only. As opposed to periodic valuation, it requires some extra configuration & testing.

First, you need to define the accounts that will be used for those accounting entries. This is done on the product category.
