How can I track inventory in CustomBooks™ while drop shipping items?

CustomBooks™ has powerful multi-location features that can handle track the inventory for drop shipping. Here's one possible solution:

1.) Enable Multi-location feature in Admin Panel → Inventory Settings.
2.) Create a location called Dropship
3.) When creating the PO, use Dropship as the location.

The dropship location is a virtual "location" rather than a physical one that would "hold" the inventory from the time you ordered it from the drop shipper until the time you invoice your customer.
