Inventory Control

Inventory Control is a Standard Feature in FactoryASP

Inventory Control is the heart of FactoryASP. A simple to use, reporting system alerts the user to possible stock problems regarding:

• Sales Orders
• Shipping Dates
• Purchase Orders
• Possible Future Stock Problems

You can run the Inventory Problems report at any time. This report not only shows which items are below minimum stock levels, but also which items may have problems in the future! You can then zoom-in to see all planned activity for each particular item. Future inventory transactions include:

• Open POs: These are items on open purchase orders that have not yet been received.
• Open Sales Orders: These are items on open sales orders that have not yet been shipped.
• Quantity to Make: These are items on open work orders that have not yet been made.
• Quantity Allocated: These are components of items on open work orders that have not yet been converted/used.

If you are trying to decide whether you have enough materials to make an assembly, you can run an Inventory Components report. It shows the components of a particular item, including how many of the item can be made with existing component inventory.

Other reports are available, including Inventory Status, Inventory History and Inventory Future.

Inventory values can be calculated as part of Accounting in Factory Edge.
