# Set up project inventory

Use the **Project** tracking dimension to manage project-specific inventory. Activate this **Project** tracking dimension for the relevant tracking dimension groups. As a result, you can track project inventory through all transactions for the released products to which the tracking dimension group is assigned. The tracking is done in a similar way as for the **Serial number** and **Batch number** tracking dimensions.

Usually, you set up project inventory tracking for high-value products that require project-specific sourcing.

No project inventory tracking is required for products:

- That are unique and are only used for a specific project.
- That can easily be supplied; the products are always available in inventory or can be purchased or produced at short notice.

### Steps

1. Go to **Product information managemen**t > **Setup** > **Dimension and variant groups** > **Tracking dimension groups**.
2. Click **New**.
3. In the **Name** field, type a value.
4. In the **Description** field, type a value.
5. Click **Save**.
6. In the list, find and select the desired record.
7. Select the **Active** check box.
8. Select the **Blank receipt allowed** check box.
9. Select the **Blank issue allowed** check box.
10. Select the **Physical inventory** check box.
11. Select the **Coverage plan by dimension** check box.
12. Select the **For purchase prices** check box.
13. Select the **For sales prices** check box.

> [!NOTE]
> **Notes**
> 
> Because the **Primary stocking** check box is cleared, you can still purchase, produce, or sell the products anonymously, if required.
