Can anyone provide me with an overview of what inventory summary
reporting facilities exist in OfBiz? I'm working with the demo data and have added a few products to that. So I want to query my facilities (individually and in aggregate) and find out, as of a point in time, what my inventory will be. For the products I've added of my own, I'm struggling a little bit to find them most of the time. I'm creating them through production runs and at first, I thought maybe all production runs disappeared somewhere :) However, upon further investigation, I've found that they are indeed in the warehouse, but I can't find them using normal searches. For instance, if I go to the Facility module and choose the Facility, I can search for Finished Goods under Inventory. The only results that show up are the demo data items, but none of the products that I added show up. However, if I goto the Catalog module, and work my way down through the categories to the products, and choose Inventory through that means, I come up with a list of Inventory Items for the product. Likewise, if I work through an order screen that has the particular product on it, I can click on the Inventory link for that item and get to the same place. I can also obtain some information under the EditFacilityInventoryItems screen, but this lists all the inventory in a historical format, more like each inventory-related transaction. So is there an easy way to get a summary inventory report, by product, per facility and across all facilities? Thanks, Kevin |
Hi Kevin,
you just have to add a ProductFacility entry for your products and they will appear in the Inventory list. You can do that from the Catalog->Product->Facilities screen Jacopo Kevin M.
