-Once you have mSupply installedand you have been faithfully recording stock transactions (receiving, issuingand doing stock takes and finalising the inventory adjustments, then you are in a position to let mSupply do all the hard work.+===== Quantification and ordering ===== 
 +  - Generate a [[reports:purchasing#suggested_order_quantities|Suggested order quantities report]] to get a sense of what is needed.  Review it to make sure that it makes sense, then,

 +  - If you are ordering to another store in our mSupply system, generate an [[purchasing:ordering_from_one_store_to_another#internal_orders|Internal Order]]<WRAP center round important 60%>
