Multi Location Enquiries - Stock Control

When using multi-location stock this option allows you to quickly display stock from all locations and switch the enquiry from one location to another.

Stock Items for Location List

Here you select up to five data items from the stock file to show within the location pick list that is displayed when you select the LOC option within the Stock Ledger Enquiry.Typically this would include the physical and reserved quantities. Note that the location code is displayed automatically.

Show all locations for a stock code, even where not set up

As a stock item may not exist in all locations this option controls whether a location record is to be included in the pick list for locations where the stock code doesn’t exist.If displayed the system shows the location but no details.

Select which location before going to the stock details

If set then after inputting the stock code the system will automatically display the location pick list.(This option does not apply if use <F8-Zoom> to view the Stock Enquiry).

Accumulate values for all stocks

Here you can select up to twenty items from the stock file to be accumulated for display when select the ALL (or ** from the location pick list). Typically these items would include physical, reserved, etc. plus possibly the period and year-to-date demand values.

Automatically select the default location

Here you can set the default location. On enquiry the system will skip input of the location, assuming this default, and ask for the stock code.

Extra File Scans

The file scan option allows you to scan documents against the stock record – you could, for example, scan a product specification or manual against the stock record.

This option allows you to set the authority level to perform a file scan. Note though that the scanned files can be viewed regardless of authority level (provided you can access the options).

Authority levels are from 0-9 where 0 is the highest authority and 9 the lowest. Leave blank to disable the file scan option for this enquiry.
