# Metal and purity

> Set up the metals you sell, like gold and silver, and their purities such as 22K and 18K.

Every item you sell is made of a metal, and most have a purity. For example, a Tamil Nadu shop sells **22K (916) gold** jewellery, **18K gold** for diamond pieces, and **silver** articles like anklets (kolusu) and pooja items.

**Menu:** Stock → Inventory → Metal

> **Info**
>
> EasyJewel already has **Gold** and **Silver** ready. Most shops only need to add their purities.
