Report Details

If the Order quantity was captured in the Alternate unit of measure, then the back order quantity printed on the report is in the Alternate unit of measure.

The Ship quantity printed on the report is in the Stocking unit of measure.

If you selected the setup option: Reduce S/O value by tax amount when tax is inclusive and the tax code used on the sales order was inclusive, then the values are printed exclusive of tax.

This report includes SCT (Supply Chain Transfer) orders.

The report is generated at line level and will therefore only include line discounts (and not order discounts) in the values.

When you generate the report for a single warehouse, the Qty available, Qty on hand and Free stock values are listed for each stock code in the report.

The Free stock is calculated as: Quantity on hand less Allocated to Sales Orders plus Back Order quantity.

Free stock is recalculated when you:

  • run the Balance function of the Order Purge program and select the Validate inventory quantity allocations option.

  • run the Purchase Order Purge program and select the Validate Inv on order quantity option.

  • Run the Balance function of the Inventory Period End program.
