It is possible to deliver goods from stock without a Delivery. This can be done by entering Invoices directly to the Invoice register (i.e. without first entering a related Sales Order). On the 'Delivery' card of the Invoice, there is an Update Stock check box, which will be on by default if the Invoice Update Stock option in the Account Usage S/L setting is on. If it is on, an Invoice for a Stocked Item will generate an "invisible" Delivery transaction. The result of such an event is that the stock balance of the Item is altered, but there will be no Delivery transaction generated in the Delivery register. The stock change is, however, visible in the Item History report in the Stock module. If you are using cost accounting (maintaining stock values in the Nominal Ledger), stock postings (the equivalent of those in Transactions generated from Deliveries) will be included in the Transaction created from the Invoice.

The Invoice Update Stock check box is only relevant for Deliveries issued from an Invoice (i.e. when there is no related Sales Order).
