# Phase 4 — Stock Simplification + Session Persistence: Manual Test Checklist

This replaces the earlier version of this checklist. On review, the full transactional Stock
module (GRV, Stock Takes, Recipe production) was removed — this is accounting software, not a
stock/warehouse system, and those physical stock transactions belong in an external system
(Matrix) instead. What remains: a Stock Item catalog, Warehouses as cost centers, and a
Stock-on-Hand view that a future external feed will populate (currently empty — nothing in this
app writes to it). This checklist also covers the session-persistence fix.

## 1. Session persistence (the "logged out on refresh" fix)

- [ ] Sign in through the Manager, land in the company app
- [ ] Refresh the browser tab (F5) — you should **stay logged in**, not bounce back to the
      Manager
- [ ] Close the browser tab entirely and reopen `http://localhost:5173` — you should still be
      signed in
- [ ] Sign out — refreshing afterward should correctly show you signed out (not silently
      restore the old session)
- [ ] Same checks on the Manager itself (`http://localhost:5174`): refresh keeps you logged in,
      sign out actually signs out

## 2. Simplified Stock module

- [ ] Sidebar's **Stock** section now shows only **Stock Items** (Recipes, Goods Received,
      Stock Takes are gone)
- [ ] Administration still has **Warehouses**
- [ ] "New Stock Item" only asks for code, name, and unit of measure — no costing method
- [ ] "New Warehouse" is unchanged (code, name, branch)
- [ ] Stock Items page still has an "Items" tab and a "Stock Levels" tab; the Stock Levels tab
      shows a note that quantities come from an external system, and the grid is empty (that's
      expected — nothing populates it yet)
- [ ] No "Match to GRV" button appears anywhere on a supplier's page
- [ ] AP invoice lines only ever offer a plain expense account — no GRV-matching option
- [ ] `GET /api/stock/grv`, `/api/stock/adjustments`, `/api/stock/recipes` all now 404 (removed)

## 3. Regression: everything else unaffected

- [ ] GL, AR, and AP all work exactly as before — Stock Control, Stock Variance, and the
      account previously called "Goods Received Not Invoiced" / "Purchase Price Variance" are
      now plain, normal GL accounts (no longer locked as control accounts), so they can be
      posted to like any other account via a manual journal entry if you want to record a
      stock-value adjustment by hand
- [ ] The manual-journal control-account lockout still correctly blocks direct postings to AR
      Control, AP Control, Tax accounts, and Bank accounts
