Adjusting On Hands From Within This Report
If you are responsible for maintaining your own inventory and have many people in field positions using mobile inventory scanning, its inevitable that one person will intend to reduce a count by "5" for example, but instead of typing -5, they just put 5 in the entry field. If you current inventory is 500, instead of being reduced to 495 to account for some damaged product, your inventory was just reduced by 495 units! Luckily, like many web reports, you can fix these issues right from the report if you have the proper permission to do so. Simply double - click on the "Adjusted OH" value you want to change - a pop-up will appear allowing you to enter the proper remaining on hand amount. As you make this change, the inventory will be back-corrected to account for this change and in seconds this problem is quickly and easily erased.
