Creating containers

once you have created your container types, you can create your empty tracked containers in breww, as well as any containers currently in trade there are two ways to do this, the first way to create containers is by going to the data importer tool this importer will allow you to state which of your tracked containers are currently held at customer sites you can locate this by going to settings > data imports and updates > containers , where you can then follow the data import guide docid\ b7fbmjkd ke2z7xy3l0kg please note, this importer is only used for containers you own and not for non returnables/one way kegs, and is not for the purpose of importing any stock; this will be covered later in the getting started guide the second way to create your containers is from the containers tab here, you will see a green button called add container (pictured below) deleting tracked containers tracked containers can be deleted from breww by heading to containers > view all if you select to view a container, you will then be able to select actions > delete container you can also delete them in bulk by selecting containers > actions & tools > bulk delete tracked containers if the container is 'missing' and you hope to locate the container again, or if the container is damaged, you may want to instead go to containers > view all , view a container, and mark it as 'missing' or 'out of service' non returnable containers if you use containers that don't need to be tracked and collected, breww's non returnable (nr) container feature can help you account for them once a container type is set up in breww, you can choose the number of nrs to rack into when racking a batch, and breww will automatically create the nr containers for you and assign each its own nr number breww tracks these nr's throughout the time they're with you, can even account for their cost in your reports, and ends their life cycle when you deliver them to a customer you will be able to choose to either assign these containers to orders by specific 'non returnable' container number, or you will be able to change your settings to instead assign by product/batch just getting started with breww? the next guide is best before/expiry dates docid\ pvqt8fzfja4ekyud7ilae or you can return to the getting started guide docid\ mdxf f trhvx1layeovsa
