The Inventory menu has a feature called Inventory Reallocate. The function is located on the Inventory menu for users who have access to the option. The purpose of this function is to re-state on-order and committed quantities in inventory, based on the state of Sales Orders, Purchases Orders, Production Orders and Inventory Adjustment/Transfer lines.
It is recommended that all other users refrain from manipulating inventory records (sales, production, purchases, adjustments) before you click Begin to start the inventory reallocate process.
Under normal use, it is not necessary to perform this function, as Spire automatically keeps track of committed and on-order quantities. This takes place as part of sales, purchase and inventory processing.
Please contact your support person if Inventory Reallocate regularly makes changes to the Inventory values.
Inventory reallocate does the following:
- Every inventory record has the committed value set to the total of:
- shipped items on all Sales Orders
- committed items on Production Orders
- quantities on Saved Inventory Adjustments/Transfers.
- Every inventory record has the on-order value set to the total of:
- order quantity minus received quantity on Issued Purchase Orders
- build quantity minus built quantity on Pending and In Progress Production Orders
- transfer to quantity on Saved Inventory Transfers.
- All Serial and Lot number records have their temp allocations flag reset
- After the process has finished, a list of inventory records where either the committed or on-order value has changed is presented. If no list is presented then no adjustments were necessary.
The Copy Inventory button here will copy the list of adjusted inventory records to the clipboard. This can be pasted to a document for subsequent review.
