Inventory questions

The questions clients actually ask about Inventory. Each answer is short and ends with the page that goes further. At the end, every message an Inventory screen refuses with, its cause and its fix.

Which costing methods are there?​

Moving average and standard cost, chosen per item. Issues leave at the moving average of their date; at month end Inventory Closing recosts the period at the weighted average of each date. FIFO or LIFO valuation is not supported; first-expiry-first-out and oldest-first only decide which batch is issued. See How stock documents work.

Can the average cost be kept per warehouse?​

Yes: the item's valuation level can be the company, the site or the warehouse. Each document then values the line at that level. See Item Revaluation for the rule each line must follow.

Can stock go negative?​

Only for items that allow negative stock. For every other item, a line taking out more than is open on the posting date is refused with "Stock not available".

Can I back-date a stock document?​

Yes, within the days the journal allows and only into a period whose inventory is still open. The back-date switches on the Inventory Control Setting do nothing.

Can I edit a goods receipt or a delivery after Save?​

No. Receipts, deliveries, returns, adjustments, transfers and splits cannot be edited or deleted; reverse them and enter again. Issues to picking lists, inventory movements and item-to-item documents can be edited until they are posted. See Undo a document.

Why does the goods receipt create a vendor invoice?​

Every receipt raises its vendor invoice on Save (parked, per purchase organisation, or on the Accounts Payable setting's auto-invoice journal), unless an item's quality point blocks invoicing until inspection. See Item Receipt for Purchase Order.

Can I do a stock count on a count sheet?​

Not supported: there is no count sheet screen. Run As On Inventory for the date, count outside, and enter the differences on Inventory Adjustment. See Count and adjust.

Does an Adjustment Request become an adjustment by itself?​

No. Nothing copies from it. Enter the agreed adjustment on Inventory Adjustment.

Can I reserve stock without a sales order?​

Not in a way that holds it. Only a reservation for a sales order keeps stock from other documents; a general reservation is recorded only. Keep such stock in its own warehouse. See Reserve stock.

How are landed costs handled?​

With Cost Revaluation after the receipt, spread by quantity, value, weight, volume or equally. See Add landed cost.

Can goods be in transit between branches?​

Yes, with a Transfer Order: the shipment puts them in the source warehouse's in-transit warehouse and the receipt takes them out. See Move stock.

How do I hold received goods until quality passes them?​

Mark the item as needing quality and give it a quality point. See Inspect incoming goods.

Why can nobody save a stock document today?​

An Inventory Closing is running or has stopped. Every stock document is refused until it completes. See Close the period.

Which currency is stock valued in?​

The company's currency. A line in another currency is converted at the exchange rate of the posting date; with no rate, the save is refused.

If something looks wrong​

Messages are shown as the screen words them, with "..." where the screen fills in a line, item or number.
