The warehouse screen

Stock → Warehouses, then any warehouse. Stock opens here, because the warehouse is what most stock questions are really about.

Stock On Hand columns

The columns are grouped, and the grouping is the point: the same product is described three ways.

Group Column Description
Product SKU Code, Description The product
On Hand On Hand Qty Physically in the warehouse
Last Cost Most recent cost per unit
Value On-hand quantity at that cost
Allocated Incoming, Outgoing Allocated movements not yet completed
Available Qty On hand, less what is already claimed — what you can promise
Unallocated Incoming, Outgoing Movements in motion but not allocated
Projected Qty Where the product lands once everything in motion completes

Important

On Hand Qty and Available Qty are different numbers, and promising stock off the on-hand figure is the most common stock error. The difference is stock that is physically present and already spoken for.

Note

To Receive and To Dispatch are the two work queues on this screen. The other tabs are history; these two are what has been committed and not yet happened, in each direction. They are also the concrete form of the Incoming and Outgoing columns on Stock On Hand.

Controls

Show Warehouse Assets includes assets in the view. Import Defaults loads default stock settings. Export downloads the list; Reports opens the warehouse reports.
