Full guide​

What it shows, and when to use it​

Each row is one item. The value comes from the stock lots you still hold, each worth the cost of what is left in it. Use it for month-end stock value, to find money tied up in old stock, or to check a figure before you open the lots behind it.

Filters​

Click the filter button beside Run Report to show or hide the filters.

Under the table a bar shows Total Qty, Current Value, Aging Value and Total Value for the whole result, not only the page.

Click a heading to sort by it; the arrow shows the direction. The sort is done on the whole report and is remembered. Use the column chooser in the table header to hide, show, drag into a new order or reset the columns. The pager at the bottom has Go to page and Items per page.

If you open this report from the BizView stock snapshot, Aging starts on the option you clicked.

Drill-down: open the lots​

Click an item row. Item Inventory Details opens for that item, with the same As of day. The Location and Aging you chose are not carried over.

Export, print, PDF and email​

Not available on the web. The mobile app can share the rows it shows as a CSV file.

Who can see it​

Open the report with View on Inventory Reports. Without it the report list shows a No Access page. Inventory Reports has only View and Add/Edit, and Delete comes with Add/Edit. A report changes no record, so Add/Edit and Delete make no difference here. The report shows all stock of the business units you can open, not only records you created.

On mobile​

In the mobile app open Reports, choose Inventory Reports, then the valuation report. The filters are Location and Aging; there is no As of. Tap a heading to sort. Rows come 10, 25 or 50 at a time. Tapping a row does not open the lots, and there is no totals bar.

The download icon shares a CSV file of the rows on the current page through your phone's share sheet. What you can do with it depends on the phone (Files on an iPhone, mail or Drive on Android). The app asks for no storage permission on either.

The Android app is on Google Play. The iPhone app is coming soon to the App Store.

Problems and fixes​

An item is missing

Only items with stock left in a lot are listed. An item with nothing on hand does not appear. Clear Location, Aging and As of and look again.

Item Inventory Details opens for all locations

The drill-down carries the item and the As of day only. Pick the Location again on the details screen.

The report page says No Access

Your role does not have View on Inventory Reports. Ask an administrator to turn it on.
