However, the admin can even bulk update the inventory of the shipment products.

For this, the admin can click the Update Inventory button available at the top.

So, this will change the status to Received of all the shipment products.

The admin can even update the shipment products inventory through barcode scanning.

So, for this, the admin will navigate to Stores -> Configuration -> Webkul -> Barcode Inventory Management as shown below.

Here, the admin will click the Open Popup To Update Inventory button which will display a pop-up window.

Note:

When the admin confirms or sends the quotation to the supplier, the supplier will not get the barcode in the mail.

Therefore, the admin needs to send this PDF to the supplier manually.

So, that supplier can use these barcodes while sending the shipments to the admin. And let the admin scan the shipments and update the inventory.
