It seems like we’ve had more trouble the last few months with PTW than we’ve
had the few years prior combined! : )
Okay, PTW Complete, Ver 8.0 with all the updates. I’ve noticed some
inventory discrepancies. Most popped up within August. Only about 10 items
out of several hundred seems to be affected.
For instance, inventory count sheets says we have 4ea on hand. After
counting, we discover we have 6ea on hand. So, I run a purchase order report
for August and it says we’ve purchased 6ea this month. I know we were out of
stock before this and the system reflected this before the purchase.
Now, when I run an inventory unit activity report with the "purchase qty"
column turned on, it says we purchased 4ea this month.
So, I look at the two POs where we ordered this item for Aug and on both POs
we ordered 2ea of that item. Now, on the second PO, we ordered 2ea but
received 4ea. 4ea is recorded in the "received" column on the PO. Thus, the
purchase order report reflects we’ve ordered 6ea this month, which is
correct.
But, why does the unit activity report say we’ve ordered 4ea? Does it take
into account the extra two we received? I’m sure it always has. Is this why
the "on hand" qty is two short?
Any enlightenment would be appreciated.
