When you create a department SKU (i.e., F for Fasteners), select N in the Keep stock info and Keep prices boxes on the Codes tab. Setting these two fields to N:

• Keeps the quantity on hand from reaching a negative number

• Tracks sales history when you type N in the Keep prices box

• Keeps these SKUs from appearing on the Price Exception report
