You may notice that the Committed, Backordered, and On Order
quantities for inventory items may appear to be incorrect.
Also, you may not be able to assign serial/lot numbers in Sales
Orders and other functions.However, these numbers may indeed be
correct even when they appear to be incorrect. The most common
reason is unposted Inventory Adjustments and Transfers.
Where these numbers come from:
- Committed
- Sales Orders, Ship Qty
- Production Orders (as a component), Pending or In
Progress (ie committed), Remaining Qty
- Inventory Adjustments and Transfers (negative adjustments that are not yet posted)
- Backordered
- Sales Orders, Backordered Qty
- On Order
- Inventory Adjustments and Transfers (positive adjustments that are not yet posted)
- Purchase Order, Order Qty less Received Qty (ie, what's
left of the Order Qty that's not yet received)
- Production Orders (as an item to be built), Pending or
In Progress (ie committed), Remaining Qty
To recalculate these numbers:
- From the top menu in Spire select Inventory, Inventory
Reallocate.
- NOTE re Serial/Lot numbers
- This function also resets a hidden value called "Temp Qty" which may be left
set if Spire terminates abnormally. That can prevent assignment
of serial/lot numbers in Sales Order and other functions.
