Returning stock items back into stock
The returning process only applies to items that have been temporarily exited, repaired or sold (if client happens to return them).
They can thus be put back into the active stock database via either the button 
(for 'sold' and 'internal usage' items) or 
(for 'lost', 'out of order', 'unknown' and 'under repair' items). These buttons are both available at the Search In Stock Page and the Stock Details Page.
Here follows for instance how a lost item, if found, is put back again into stock.
As returning an item into stock might mean that, after verification, it is somehow unsuitable to be sold as new again, the return process allows to flag a to-be-returned stock item as either 'second-hand' or still 'new'.
The former will then set the stock item's current price to 0, while the latter will leave this price to purchase price.
This returned item, to acknowledge the fact that something might have happened to it and that it is somehow unsuitable to be sold as new again, has now the status 'in stock (untested)' :
An item can also be returned from the Shop Sale Page.It may undergo a repair stage.
