Report Details

The program compares information residing within the snapshot files to information residing within the live files and reports on the differences.

The Requirements Calculation program generates the planning indicated within the snapshot files.

A supply chain transfer is both a demand (from the target warehouse) and a supply (from the source warehouse) for the same stock item.

The report includes any quantity that has been dispatched but not invoiced for a Supply Chain Transfer sales order as part of the supply for the item in the target warehouse.

The latest requirements calculation date is printed on each report.
