Inventory reports
Purpose
- See quantities: what the book says you hold, what moved, what to count, and how old the stock is.
- These reports read posted sales, purchases, and Product Documents. They do not create invoices or journal stock value.
- Month-end value on Profit & Loss and the Balance Sheet is still Maintain Stock Value.
Menu path
- Count sheet: Inventory → Inventory Report → Stock Physical WorkSheet. Needs stkPhyWS.
- Warehouse documents: Inventory → Inventory Report → Stock Document. Needs stkDocument.
- Movement (item card): Inventory → Inventory Report → Stock Card. Needs stkCard.
- Closing qty in a period: Inventory → Inventory Report → Stock Month End Balance. Needs stkMthEndBal.
- Age of qty on hand: Inventory → Inventory Report → Stock Aging. Needs stkAging.
- A quick on-hand figure is Bal Qty on Maintain Product.

What to use when
- What should we count tonight? Stock Physical WorkSheet.
- The count differs from the book. Worksheet → Copy Data To Stock Adjustment. See Product Adjustment.
- Did this goods received, delivery order, or product received post? Stock Card.
- A list of received, issue, transfer, and adjustment. Stock Document.
- Quantity at month-end by item or location. Stock Month End Balance.
- What has not moved? Stock Aging.
- Ringgit on profit and loss for opening and closing stock. Maintain Stock Value, then Save on opening balance.
- Who owes us, or who we owe. Sales and purchase aging, not this chapter.
- Bal Qty on Product Listing is a quick on-hand figure. Use Stock Card when you need the movements that built it.
If something goes wrong
- The card is empty. Wrong item, location, or date range. Confirm the document saved and the line has an Item Code.
- Card quantity is twice what you expect. The same goods are on a Product Document and a goods received note, delivery order, or invoice. See Product Documents, Delivery Order, and Goods Received.
- The worksheet has no rows. Loosen the filters. Try Include Zero Balance or all item types. Confirm products are Active.
- Copy to adjustment did nothing. Run the worksheet first so there is data, then use the copy icon. Finish Save on Product Adjustment.
- Month-end quantity and Maintain Stock Value differ. This report is quantity. Type the cost value on Maintain Stock Value.
- Inventory Report is missing from the menu. The role needs stkPhyWS, stkDocument, stkCard, stkMthEndBal, or stkAging. See Users. The plan may not be Premium. See Company.
- Reset Stock Card looks risky. It rebuilds from documents. Post or delete the document when a save is missing. Reset does not invent a missing document.
- Aging looks like customer debt. You opened sales Aging. Stock aging is under Inventory Report.
