Lines, locations and the ledger
Stock lines, locations, the movement ledger and the reorder list, in one area.
One item's balance at two locations while a transfer posts: the source falls and the destination rises by the same quantity.
Trade counter rises by 6 to 10
Demonstration data
Why and how
- Why
- Promises made at the quote need a quantity that is true wherever the stock sits.
- How
- Every product writes movements through one writer, and each balance is summed from them.
What is in it
Movements
The ledger, newest first: every receipt, issue, transfer and count, with who and when.
The Stock ledger for one item, newest first: two opening counts, then a transfer between locations with the balance after each movement.
Transfer of 6 from Main store posts: 37 left there
Demonstration data
Lines
One balance per item per location, derived from the ledger and never typed over.
Locations
Every place stock is held, each renamed or counted from its own row.
Reorder
Lines under their reorder point, turned into a supplier request or a purchase order.
