Big Business 13.65 and 14.22 fix the Show button and add new Warehouse Counts for the MRP Add-On.
Big Business 10.15 updates Warehouse Qtys for instant display. Big Business 10.19 automatically deletes Warehouse Qty's for Obsolete Items.
The Warehouse Quantity Search includes quantity values from Warehouse Quantities:
Warehouse Qty On Hand
Warehouse Qty Allocated
Warehouse Qty Available
Warehouse Order At Least
Warehouse When Below
Warehouse Qty On Order
Warehouse Qty Needed
It is important to understand that the Warehouse Quantities work in lockstep with the accounting for Items. The search criterion, Quantity On Hand, refers to the value on the Item Card, and your total inventory of the Item, while the Warehouse Qty On Hand refers to the quantity in an individual warehouse.
Stocked Count
Stocked is a Warehouse Count that indicates how many you should find on the shelf. It is part of the MRP Add-On and differs from Whse Qty On Hand by Shipped count.
To display, open the Warehouse Quantities search, click Add (+) and select Stocked. Initially the columns for Stocked, Released, Picked, and Shipped will have no value.
Warehouse Counts
Warehouse Counts track stock in your warehouse, so you know what you have where. With the MRP Add-On, they show you what you have on the shelf, in process, or already shipped but not yet invoiced, so you know you'll know what to find, where.
For example, shipping an order can automatically update Shipped Qtys on the order, which update Shipped counts for your warehouse, which show what's left available.
Order Qtys
Order Qtys are being added to help track partial or short shipments as they happen.
After invoicing a partial shipment, the Open Qtys on the order are updated and you can see what's left to deliver. But, what if you want to set partial amounts to ship?
For example, Backordered for order line items lets you set partial qtys to remain open.
