Output a report of the quantity on hand, unit cost, unit of measure, and cost basis for selected products.
Use Inventory Valuation Report to create a report that lists the value of inventory on hand for the current date, a prior date, or a prior period. This report can be broken down by product location, product category, or zone.
When the report is broken down by location, the total quantity on hand and total cost are calculated for each location. An overall total cost and total quantity are calculated for all selected locations.
When the report is broken down by product category, the total quantity on hand and total cost are calculated for each product and each product category. An overall total cost and total quantity are calculated for all selected categories.
If there is a discrepancy between the report and the general ledger, you can output a supplementary reconciliation report to help determine the cause of the discrepancy.
You can use this report to reconcile inventory with the general ledger. When reconciling, filters selected for this report should match the setup of inventory accounts. For more information, see Reconciling Subledgers with the General Ledger FAQ.
Note Inventory weight and unit of measure appear on the report if Grocery is entered in the Vertical field for your system ID in System ID Maintenance.
